Palmerston, the defending Senior "A" Champions, had a very strong year, with a 17-7-0 record, good for 4th in the North Division.

The 81's would face the South Division champions, the Clinton Radars in the "AA" quarter-finals. After falling behind by losing the first game of the series, Palmerston would win 2 in a row in overtime to take a 2-1 series lead. Clinton would come back and win 2 in a row to put Palmerston behind 3-2, however in the 6th game, the 81's staved off elimination with a convincing 5-2 victory, forcing a 7th game in Clinton. The 81's would fall behind the Radars 3-0 after the 1st period and could never recover, losing 6-2 and being eliminated from the playoffs.
