From the USHL:
The United States Hockey League and its member clubs announced today the dates and times for the 2018 Clark Cup Final. The Fargo Force and Youngstown Phantoms will square off in a best-of-five series to determine the 2018 Clark Cup Champion.
Both teams are vying for the first Clark Cup championship in their club’s history. Fargo swept Tri-City in the First Round to advance to the Western Conference Semifinals, where they knocked off the Omaha Lancers in four games. Following their series win over Omaha, the Force defeated the Anderson Cup champion Waterloo Black Hawks in four games to advance to the Clark Cup Final for the first time since 2013. Youngstown, after receiving a first-round bye, swept Dubuque in their Eastern Conference Semifinal series before knocking off Team USA in four games in the Eastern Conference Final to reach the Clark Cup Final for the first time in team history.
Fargo is considered the higher seed in the series due to having the higher regulation season point total.
