League games were played every weekend and the playoffs were all played in Calgary. The weekend after the above games there was a bad snowstorm which prevented the Great Falls Americans from reaching Calgary for the second game. League officials had no flexibility in scheduling. They cancelled the original semi finals and instead had a sudden death game between Canmore and the Meteors. The winner went on to play the Beavers in the final.
