For the second season in a row the Voyageurs met up with the Concordia Thunder in the first round of the playoffs.
On Friday in Edmonton it was a close game through 2 periods of play as the Thunder held the lead by only a 2-1 margin, the 3rd period was not as close for the challengers from Lac La Biche, as the Thunder scored three un-answered goals to win game 1 by a score 0f 5-1.
Both teams made the trek up north for Saturday's game at the Centennial arena, another game that didn't go the way the Voyageurs would have hoped.
The Thunder scored three goals in the first period, including one on the man advantage to put them up 3-0.
By the third period it was a 5-0 lead for the Concordia Thunder, the Voyageurs were able to climb back a bit but ran out of time and saw their season end on home ice.
Chris Glen and Cody Mapes had the two goals in the third for Portage to close the gap.
Concordia wins the 3 game series in 2 games, 5-1 and 5-2.
