Playoffs

Bracket

In each round, teams compete in a best-of-five series following a 2–2–1 format. The team with home ice advantage plays at home for games one and two (and game five, if necessary), and the other team is at home for games three and four. The top four teams make the playoffs.

In the first round, by virtue of finishing first in the regular season standings, the Montreal Victoire chose to play the Ottawa Charge, the third-place team. This selection meant that the second-place Toronto Sceptres would be the home team against the fourth-place Minnesota Frost.
