PWHL playoffs will begin May 7
The 2025 PWHL playoffs will begin May 7, the league announced Friday.
The Toronto Sceptres will host games May 7 and 9, while the Montreal Victoire will do the same May 8 and 10. The opponents and remainder of the schedule are still to be determined.
The regular season schedule wraps up Saturday, with plenty still at stake in the standings. Montreal (50 points) and Toronto (47 points) have a chance to finish as the No. 1 seed and would therefore be able to select its first-round opponent.
Meanwhile, the Boston Fleet (44 points), Ottawa Charge (42 points), and Minnesota Frost (41 points) are jockeying for the final two playoff spots.
All six teams are in action Saturday to wrap up the regular season. The Victoire take on the New York Sirens, the Sceptres will face the Charge, and the Fleet will play the Frost.
All PWHL playoff series are best-of-five. Two semifinals take place before the Walter Cup is on the line in the championship series. The Frost won the title last year in the league's inaugural season.
