The 1981 Calder Cup playoffs of the American Hockey League began on April 7, 1981.[1] best-of-seven series for Division Semifinals and Division Finals. The division champions played a best-of-seven series for the Calder Cup . The Calder Cup Final ended on May 20, 1981, with the Adirondack Red Wings defeating the Maine Mariners four games to two to win the Calder Cup for the first time in team history.[2]
Maine set an AHL record for the most goals allowed in one playoff with 81.[3] [1] [4]
Playoff seeds [ edit ]
After the 1980–81 AHL regular season , the top four teams from each division qualified for the playoffs. The Hershey Bears finished the regular season with the best overall record.[5]
Northern Division [ edit ]
Maine Mariners - 97 points

Bracket [ edit ]
In each round, the team that earned more points during the regular season receives home ice advantage, meaning they receive the "extra" game on home-ice if the series reaches the maximum number of games. There is no set series format due to arena scheduling conflicts and travel considerations.[6]
Division Semifinals [ edit ]
Note 1: Home team is listed first.
Note 2: The number of overtime periods played (where applicable) is not indicated
