The Saskatoon Blades playoff run has to an end after they were swept by the Winnipeg ICE in four games after a 3-2 decision on Wednesday.

As a result, the Winnipeg ICE are heading to the league finals with the series victory.

Briley Wood’s goal just over six minutes in the third period proved to be the game’s deciding marker.

Winnipeg will now face the winner of the Western Conference between Seattle and Kamloops, with the Thunderbirds leading 2-1.
