The Eastern Conference is set. Here's what I believe the Game 1 windows will be for each series:
Saturday:
5:00 p.m. ET: Lightning-Panthers (TBS)
8:00 p.m. ET: Maple Leafs-Bruins (TBS)
Sunday:
12:30 p.m. ET: Islanders-Hurricanes (ESPN)
3:00 p.m. ET: Capitals-Rangers (ESPN)
If you are in the United States it looks as though the first night of the playoffs will be featured on TBS. This huge divisional matchup will surely provide a ton of drama and good hockey to get the playoffs going.
