• Once the four division winners are crowned, they'll meet in the Stanley Cup semifinals. Seeding for this round will be based on regular-season point totals.

So then, based on most likely scenarios, a TB-Avs SCF is pretty likely.

So is a TB-Avs SCF inevitable?

feels like it.

Basically with the playoff rules if the Bolts win their series they won't see the Avs/Knights until the finals.

Final Four options right now:

Top Seed: Avs/Knights
Second Seed: Canes/Leafs
Third Seed: Bolts/Bruins/Isles
Fourth Seed: Jets/Habs

Depending on the outcome of the Leafs/Habs the Bolts could be the second seed if the beat the Canes.
Edit: Also the Bruins/Isles would be the fourth seed if the Leafs move on to the final four.

Nothing against all the teams remaining but if the final four is:

Avs/Knights vs Bruins
Leafs vs Bolts

Would be fun to watch.

I’m hoping for a traditional final four if two teams each from the original conferences make it.

[naslundfan19]

So, Fleury should have started probably.

 

[forty_three]

Wow, I thought for sure that was a major.

Oh yeah would be nice, the only chance for that would be the Jets moving on playing the winner of this series.

OK, maybe not.

 

[mattola]

So. They're pretty good then??? Wow

 

[thedddd]

Cue the comeback.

Yeah that 6-1 lead is the most dangerous lead to have.

/Okay, not really, but 6.3 million versus 12.5 million allows you to actually build a team.
