Friday?! This league is a joke. At least people don't have to worry about Marty being tired after a full 144 hours of rest, the league did its best to get him rusty.

Friday? What a joke. I don't think I've ever seen such a gap between the final day of the regular season and playoffs.

Though I do see the NHL managed to get its marquee series with their two beloved golden boy franchises a Wednesday night start.

good thing Brodeur played yesterday !

[Z-Man]

Wow. Good thing Marty played yesterday.

This was the only option to really avoid back-to-back games with building committments.

[Quinn01]

On top of it being almost a week off, its Friday the 13th.

Friday? What a joke. I don't think I've ever seen such a gap between the final day of the regular season and playoffs.

strange indeed. one would think these few days could be better used for time off during the later rounds.
maybe the Final Game 7 will be July 4

[NJ4life]

NJ gets no weekend dates because if this! Complete bs!

[Triumph]

Very interesting - the Vancouver Los Angeles series has one game between Sunday the 15th and Sunday the 22nd. There are also no games on consecutive nights in any series; I think the Devils series was such that it couldn't've been avoided had it started on Wednesday or Thursday.

Dude, you gotta change your avatar. No Cup images for the playoffs bro.

[BlueSkirt]

i liked the schedule from 80s/90s. East one night / West the other night. Games every 48 hours ie M/W/F/Tu/Th/Sa/M.
oh well.
It's hard to believe the second round wont start until May !!

[BlueSkirt]

well, by Friday the playoff beards will be fully in!

[Prucenterrules]

Dude, you gotta change your avatar. No Cup images for the playoffs bro.

will do it now

[Onddeck]

fvck that. Wait till Friday that suuuucks

And yes I'll change my sig when I can get to a computer

Not really, you could have started Wednesday-Friday-Sunday-Tuesday to avoid the Net home games, or go with Thursday-Saturday then the Tuesday-Thursday. Waiting till Friday to start is a joke. We could still be playing Game 1 after other series' second game ends.
