A sold-out Centre 200 for Game 1 of the Cape Breton Eagles second round series.

They face Chicoutimi in the opening contest Friday.

Local sports commentator Dave Curnew says it’s going to be a tight series.

“From a talent and skill perspective, they are very evenly based teams. I wouldn’t be shocked to see this series go seven games,” said Curnew.

The Eagles are back in the second round for the first time in five years.

Game 2 goes Saturday night in Sydney.
