Notes
- ↑ CBR Brave and Adelaide Adrenaline were each awarded one point each and officially recorded a tie on 19 July 2014 despite there being no ties in the AIHL since the introduction of the shootout in 2006 due to a bus crash involving the travelling Adelaide players and staff en route to Canberra.[3][4]
