Professional hockey came to the Carstairs Memorial Arena last night.

The Canadian Women's Hockey League defending champion Calgary Inferno faced off with the Toronto Furies last night in the first game of their best of three playoff.

The game came to Carstairs because of an issue with the Inferno's home arena.

The defending champs suffered a rude awakening as they dropped a 5 - 2 decision to the Furies.

If the Inferno can pull off a win in this afternoon's second game in Calgary, there will be a second playoff game in Carstairs tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon at 12:45.
