KMHA Peewee A Playoff Format

Hi Team,

The peewee A playoffs will be after the March break and the format for Kanata will be as follows:

There are three peewee A teams so each will play the other two A teams twice for a total of four round robin games.

Once the round-robin is complete, the top two teams will move on. In the case of a tie in points, the tie-breakers will be:

1. The head-to-head result involving the teams tied (two-way ties only).
2. The team with the most wins during round robin games.
3. The best ratio of Goals For /(Goals For + Goals Against), in round-robin games.
4. The team with the most goals scored.
5. The regular season finish.

The top two teams will play in a final game for the Kanata champion. The Kanata champion will then play the Nepean champion for the peewee A overall championship.

There will be no overtime in round robin games. Format for overtime in the semi-final and final games:

First overtime period: A sudden-death period comprised of three (3) minutes stop time in length with teams playing with four (4) skaters plus a goaltender. Substitutions are allowed.

Second overtime period (if necessary): A sudden-death period comprised of three (3) minutes stop time in length with teams playing with three (3) skaters plus a goaltender. Substitutions are allowed.

Should the game remained tied after the fourth overtime period, subsequent ten (10) minute stop time periods with each team playing with one (1) skater and a goaltender will be played until a goal is scored.
