With the Asheville Smoke clinching the eastern conference regular season championship yesterday, the Knights will battle the Northeast division winners, the Adirondack IceHawks in the first round of the 2001 Colonial Cup playoffs.
New Haven is locked in as the third seed in the eastern conference.
Adirondack, despite having a worse record than the Knights, has clinched the second seed, by virtue of winning their division. Therefore, the IceHawks will have home ice advantage over New Haven in the best of five series. If the Knights don't play ten home games, the remaining balance of the playoff package can either be used as a deposit for season tickets for next year, or can be refunded. The best playoff ticket deal comes with the purchase of season tickets for the 2001-2002 season. If you purchase next year's season tickets in full by April 1, you will receive an equal amount of playoff tickets for all home playoff games this year absolutely free.
