With Toronto and Montreal having secured playoff berths and home-ice advantage, the PWHL announced Tuesday their best-of-five semifinals will start in those arenas.
Toronto’s first two playoff games are May 8 and 10, and Montreal’s are May 9 and 11.
The top four in the six-team league advance to the post-season.
Once the regular season concludes Sunday and the standings are final, the top team in the league has a 24-hour window to choose its semifinal opponent between the third and fourth seeds.
