With the regular season wrapping up over the weekend, the matchups are all set for the 2019-20 Shaw BCHL Playoffs.

The first round will consist of eight best-of-seven series in the Interior, Island and Mainland Divisions. Teams have the option to choose a 2-2-1-1-1 format or a 2-3-2 based on what works best for both sides.

A change for this year sees the two wildcard seeds re-seeded in the Interior Division based on point totals. That means the Victoria Grizzlies slot in as the number-six seed, the Prince George Spruce Kings are the seventh seed and the West Kelowna Warriors are number eight. As usual, the Interior will also re-seed after the first round.

See below for the matchups and the full schedule for each series.
