Spitfires lay claim as one of greatest CHL teams in recent memory

With the 9-1 demolition of the Brandon Wheat Kings in the 2010 Memorial Cup final, the Windsor Spitfires have laid claim as one of the best junior hockey teams in recent memory. This years Spitfires team was absolutely loaded with talent. They boast two, soon to be, top 5 2010 NHL Draft picks (Taylor Hall, will be #1 and Cam Fowler), along with numerous players who will continue their careers in the NHL. The Spitfires easily won every game in this years Memorial Cup. They finished the year on a 12 game winning streak (after coming back from 3-0 deficit to Kitchener in OHL Playoffs). It will be very interesting to see where next years Windsor team fits into the OHL picture. For more on Windsor's back to back Memorial Cup Championships, here is an article via Yahoo Sports blog, Buzzing the Net.
