The Oakville Blades won back to back series in five games respectively against the Brampton Admirals and the Buffalo Jr. Sabres. They were crowned  as the “West Division Champions.”

They'll have to wait for their third round opponent the Markham Royals. The Markham Royals beat the Newmarket Hurricanes in seven games.

During the regular season, the Blades were 2-0 vs the Royals. The Blades won both meetings, 4-1 and 6-5. Oakville returns to the conference final for the first time since 2017, before that was the 2010-2011 campaign.

Due to arena scheduling and usage in Oakville the North/West Conference Final Schedule looks a little different then previous rounds.
