The team played three mini games against the top of each division, the Coquitlam Wildcats, the Prince George Axemen, and the Kelowna Suns. The Steelers came third overall heading in to the finals. The finals were a sudden death, first team to score format. The Steelers were eliminated in the second round of play — and finished with bronze medal placement.
