NLL Week 12: Playoff Scenarios

The National Lacrosse League has released playoff clinching scenarios ahead of Week 12, which features three games on the schedule. The Saskatchewan Rush can punch a postseason ticket this weekend with a win or a Vancouver loss.

  • Saskatchewan Rush (8-2) can clinch playoff berth with a win vs. Calgary Roughnecks or a Vancouver Stealth loss vs. New England Black Wolves this weekend

 

The 2017-18 NLL regular season concludes in Week 21 with every team in action before the 2017-18 NLL Playoffs begin.

 

A total of six NLL teams, the top three clubs in each division’s standings, will qualify for the playoffs. The two regular season division champions will earn a first-round bye as the top seeds. The second seeds will host the third seed in their respective division for the single-elimination Division Semifinal game in the first round. The second round of the playoffs has changed for this season and will now be played as a single-elimination contest. The top seed from each division will host the winner of the Division Semifinal between the second and third seeds for the Division Championships.

 

For the third-straight year, the Finals will be played as a full best-of-three series with the higher-seeded team hosting Game 1 and Game 3 (if necessary).
