Sitting on the outside of the playoff picture in February, the Chiefs needed wins in five of their last seven, and one in the final game of the regular season, to put themselves in the post-season.

The loss finished the careers of Chief 20-year-olds Bear Hughes, named captain in January, and Nick McCarry. Hughes led the Chiefs in scoring in the regular season with 24 goals and 67 points while McCarry scored 35 points in his 36 games as a Chief.
