According to Rule 113, the playoff is conducted under the same conditions and rules governing the league during the season. A playoff is not considered part of the last two weeks of the schedule. If substitutes are permitted during the regular season, they would be acceptable as eligible players unless a league rule specifically states that substitutes are not permitted in the playoff.
