Memorial Cup 2010 will be in Brandon, Everett or Kelowna

From Gregg Drinnan of Taking Note:

The WHL made it official Friday — the Brandon Wheat Kings, Everett Silvertips and Kelowna Rockets have submitted applications to play host to the 2010 Memorial Cup. Bid presentations will take place Oct. 15 at a board of governors meeting in Calgary and a decision will be announced after that meeting. This will be a two-horse race between Brandon and Everett. It’s the old guard against the new, old money against new. . . . The 2009 Memorial Cup will be played in Rimouski, Que., home of the QMJHL’s Oceanic.

All three places appear to be good candidates to host the event.
