Oil Barons to face Storm in first round

The Fort McMurray Oil Barons will match up against the Grande Prairie Storm in the best-of-five first round of the AJHL playoffs.

On Friday night, the Spruce Grove Saints clinched the North division title by defeating the Bonnyville Pontiacs while the MOB fell 3-2 to the Drayton Valley Thunder.

That put the Barons in the #2 spot, which means a first-round matchup with the #7 seed Storm.

Games 1 and 2 will happen on Saturday and Sunday nights, the 25th and 26th of February, at the Casman Centre, with both games starting at 8pm.

Game 3 will be in Grande Prairie on Tuesday, February 28th at 7:30 at the Canada Games Arena.

If necessary, Game 4 will be the night of Wednesday the 29th in G.P., while a game 5 would be in Fort McMurray on March 3rd at 8pm.
