I think regional playoffs start now and if you win out your region you go to the final frozen four. So right now it's a 3 game series seed 2. vs 7. against vermont.
Quote:
Hockey East quarterfinal action in 2013 will again be a best-of-three format with the four highest seeds hosting series at their respective campus sites. As the regular season champion, the No. 1 seed will host No. 8.; No. 2 will host No. 7; No. 3 will host No. 6; and No. 4 will host No. 5.
Teams will be re-seeded after the quarterfinals, with the four winners advancing to the 29th Annual Hockey East Championship Tournament at the TD Garden in Boston.
