Oklahoma City Clinches First Playoff Berth

 Last night the Barons extended their season, clinching a playoff spot with a 2-0 win over the Texas Stars.

Sunday's games will determine the Barons' seed and their first-round opponent, but with 91 standing points the Barons eliminated the three clubs chasing them.

Jeff Deslauriers recorded his third shutout in  four games as OKC won their fourth straight. Deslauriers stopped 22 Texas shots.

Milan Kytnar scored first at 6:47 of the second frame on a flip shot near the net, assisted by Tanner House and Alex Plante. Kytnar has points in six straight games.

Colin McDonald scored his 41st of the season at 19:42 of the second period from Brad Moran and Mark Arcobello. McDonald is now tied for the league lead in goals scored with Hamilton's Nigel Dawes. Hamilton's regular season is over, and if McDonald can score tonight he'd have a real good chance at nabbing the league scoring title.
