Tonight's tilt between the Bulldogs and the Comets was, for all intents and purposes, a contest to determine the third and final playoff spot (the Thistles and Millionaires had already locked up the first two). The Dogs came into the game holding a slim one-point edge in the standings, but the Comets were absolutely red-hot, riding a five-game unbeaten streak that had already pushed the flagging Victorias into the cellar. In a stunning turn of events, the Comets knocked off the Bulldogs with an easy 3-1 win, vaulting them into the playoffs. There's still a meaningless game between the Victorias and the Thistles to finish up before the postseason, but the playoff picture is set. The Millionaires will host the Comets in the wild-card game, and then the winner of that contest will face the first-place Thistles in the best-of-five Creighton Cup finals.
