Several upsets are in the books.
* :SEA-NHL: Seattle (#3 Pacific) upset :EDM: Edmonton (#2 Pacific)
* :PIT-NHL: Pittsburgh (#3 Metro) upset :WAS-NHL3: Washington (#2 Metro)
That knocks out both of Jonathan's teams from the Playoffs. Both the Caps and Oilers turned in a strong season respectively with the FNHL Capitals challenging for the FNHL Presidents Trophy until the final week of 2021-22.

:NYI: NYI (Eastern Wildcard #1) were leading :MON-NHL: Montreal (#1 Atlantic) for most of Round 1, but on the final day Montreal found a way to chip away at the lead and over took NYI in the last 20 minutes of their final scheduled game. The defending :win: FNHL Champ :MON-NHL: FNHL Montreal moves onto Round 2.
