Calgary Inferno host Brampton Thunder for best of three playoff series

There will be playoff hockey in Calgary, after all. It won't be at the NHL level, but the Calgary Hitmen have all but clinched their spot in the post-season - while the Calgary Inferno are not only going, but hosting.

The CWHL has a bit of a modified playoff system set up this year. It's still the first seed against the fourth, and the second against the third, but with something new: the first and second seeds host the fourth and third seeds for a three-game semifinal series on home ice.

The Inferno needed just one win to clinch the second seed over the Brampton Thunder, and they got it in dramatic fashion.
