Playoff Rules

Seeding for the playoffs pool play will be based off regular season conference play points. If two conference teams are tied in points, the tie breaker will go to head-to-head game play results, followed by total number of regular season Senior-A wins, and then if needed, the total regular season goal differential for tiebreakers.

2-Points for winning against Senior-A team in regulation or overtime
1-Point for going to overtime against Senior-A team
1-Point 
for winning against Senior-B team
0-Points for losing to Senior-A or Senior-B teams in regulation
