To determine Final matchups, ties in the standings will be broken by:

1. Plus/minus
2. Record throughout the playoffs (Wins, losses, ties)
3. Head-to-head winner
4. Regular Season standings

In the final games, tied teams will play a 9 minute overtime period starting with the 1st line, then 2nd line, then 1st again. The overtime period is NOT sudden death. Regular line rules apply. If the game is still tied after overtime, the game will go to a shootout. If teams remain tied after three shooters, the shootout will continue until one team scores and the other misses.
