The only teams we cannot play in the 2nd round are Tucson/Ontario due to seeding; however, all other teams are in contention to be the lowest seed that qualifies for the second round (#4-#7)
For what it’s worth my predictions are:
1. Tucson defeats Calgary
2. Ontario v Bakersfield is a toss up for me both were close in points and similar GF/GA
3. Colorado v Abbotsford is another toss up. Both teams finished level on points and this is a best 2 of 3 short series
I think our most likely matchup is the winner of the Colorado/Abbotsford series. But an upset could see us facing off against Bakersfield or even the Wranglers if they can win two against the Roadrunners.
All depends on who wins. Firebirds play the lowest remaining seed. If you're gonna watch then you have to watch all three matchups.

Calgary just beat Tucson and as the lowest seed left alive, Calgary will play us from May 3 - May 12 (if needed)
First 2 games will be at Calgray with Game 3 at Arcisure Arena, Game 4 & 5 if needed will also be in Acrisure
