Giants have secured the eighth seed in the Western Conference and will clash with the first-placed Everett Silvertips in Round 1.

It will mark the third time that the Giants and Silvertips have met in the playoffs.

In 2006 the Giants earned a 4-0 series sweep against Everett in Round 3, and in 2004 the Silvertips defeated the Giants in six games in Round 2.

Giants will travel to Everett for the first two games in the best-of-seven series, before hosting the Silvertips at the Langley Events Centre.
