With the NHL season entering its final few weeks, clinchings, eliminations, and playoff matchups are starting to take place.
The Boston Bruins secured their eighth straight playoff berth late last week. But that does not mean the remaining seven games have any less meaning, as they remain neck-and-neck with the Florida Panthers for the top seed in the Atlantic Division.
As the calendar turns to April, the New York Rangers appear on track to take the top seed in the Eastern Conference. The Rangers currently hold a three-point lead over the Bruins with a game in hand.
