Regarding yellow card accumulation...

Pasquotti, Buscher, and Waterman have hit 4 and will miss a match prior to the finals, making them available. Perfect.

Mavila and Minatel are on 3 each. If they get one more next Wednesday, October 16th, after the 14-day window, their suspension would kick in on October 30th. Available for the first leg on October 26th, but unavailable for the 2nd leg on November 2nd.

Edited to snip my overthinking.

After a bit of digging, it looks like the 14 day window is inclusive, despite the wording on the CanPL site as the suspension kicking in on the first match AFTER the 14 day window. Using Buscher as an example, he got his yellow on October 5th, and is ineligible for October 19th vs. Edmonton.

So... anyone who hits card accumulation on October 19th will be ineligible for November 2nd, based on past precedent. Thankfully there is a deep squad and it is possible to sit anyone at risk in the last two matches.

And it seems that any accumulation gained in the first leg of the final will be moot, because the second leg is within the 14 day window.
