"A regulation win for the Sceptres will give Toronto the fourth and final playoff spot, based on number of regulation wins as a tiebreaker. Ottawa will take the playoff spot with any other result."
"Only one point separates the second-place Fleet and first-place Montreal Victoire heading into the final day of the regular season. But teams don't seem eager for the opportunity to pick their playoff opponent."
"For two consecutive years, the top-seeded team fell to the team they chose to play. That could be one reason why Boston Fleet head coach Kris Sparre has downplayed his team's desire to finish atop the standings."
The last day of the PWHL regular season includes all eight teams in action, with significant playoff implications. The Toronto Sceptres face the Ottawa Charge, where a regulation win for Toronto secures a playoff spot. The Boston Fleet and Montreal Victoire compete for the top seed, impacting their playoff matchups. Even teams like the Vancouver Goldeneyes and Seattle Torrent, who are not advancing, have stakes in the game for draft positioning. Coaches emphasize the importance of focusing on their own performance rather than external outcomes.
