With Montreal having the easiest schedule, the Bombers having the tie-breaker on the Lions, but the Lions having a game in hand, it is really up in the air, but I would say Montreal has the toughest time, needing a better record than both the others. Not sure how the Bombers are “two games back” with an even record?
To recap:

Bombers: get in if all tied
Lions: get in if better than Bombers and at least tied with Als
Als: only get in if best over-all record
