Playoff Series Finalized

The Bucks' clinching the No. 3 seed tonight allowed the schedule for the Southern Conference Semifinal series against the Odessa Jackalopes to be finalized.

You can read it at the bottom of Bryan Benway's game story or below, where I shall copy and paste the CHL press release:


Odessa/Laredo Semifinals Series Finalized

The Laredo Bucks earned the third seed on Wednesday night thanks to their 4-3 overtime victory over the Texas Brahmas at the Laredo Entertainment Center. By garnering the third seed, the Bucks have set-up a Southern Conference Semifinals match-up with the second seeded Odessa Jackalopes (the Southwest Division Champions).

The series between the Jacks and Bucks will begin on Friday, March 27th at the Ector County Coliseum in Odessa. The first game in Laredo will be Game Three taking place on Wednesday, April 1st.

The two teams meet three times during the regular season with Odessa winning all three match-ups and played last season in the Southern Conference Semifinals with Laredo sweeping the Jackalopes in their best-of-seven series.

This season’s best-of-seven series schedule is as follows:

***all times local

The Ray Miron President’s Cup Playoffs begin on Monday, March 23rd and all the action of the post-season can be caught LIVE on the CHL Network.


Obviously, this means "Pack the House for Charity" night will be Wednesday, April 1. Interesting choice, but hopefully things work out.
