Playoff Schedule
UPDATE: Two major changes have been made to the playoff schedule. First, the asterisk on Games 4 and 5 in the first two rounds of the Tassadar Cup (ZHL playoffs) has been eliminated, so schedules for each series are not dependent upon how many games the other series takes. Second, the Artanis Cup (Probe League playoffs) was incorrectly scheduled as if it were a Best of Five bracket, but it is in fact Best of Three. As such, all eight teams in the probe league will make the playoffs, allowing us to fill those time slots out a bit more, and allowing all teams to have a shot at the Cup.
These games will not be entered into the Schedule section of the site until the participants of the games in question are determined. Nevertheless, this is the schedule for the playoffs this season:
