Playoff Bracket

In each round, the highest remaining seed in each conference is matched against the lowest remaining seed. The higher-seeded team is awarded home ice advantage, which gives them a maximum possible four games on their home ice, with the other team getting a maximum possible three. The opening elimination round follows a best-of-five 2-2-1 format. Each best-of-seven series follows a 2–2–1–1–1 format. This means that the higher-seeded team will have Games 1 and 2, plus 5 and 7 if necessary, played on their home ice, while the lower-seeded team will be at home for the other games. The format ensures that the team with home ice advantage will always have home ice for the "extra" game if there are an odd number of games in a series.

All Star Game

The BCHL All-Star Game was played at the Bear Mountain Arena in Victoria, British Columbia on January 23, 2008. https://web.archive.org/web/20080611081335/http://www.bchl.bc.ca/leagues/newsletter.cfm?leagueID=2393&clientID=1413 The Coastal Conference All-Stars won the game 15–9.
