The NHL’s second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs begins tonight, as the Tampa Bay Lightning and New York Islanders kick off their series at 7 p.m.
Oddly enough, the NHL’s first round isn’t even over yet, with game seven between Anaheim and Nashville going tonight at 10 p.m.
I can’t ever recall a time where the second round began before the first round officially ended, but I’m guessing scheduling conflicts brought the NHL to this messy situation.
Anyways – I digress.
Today, with the second round in the Eastern Conference officially beginning, we’re going to look at these second round series and pick who the winners shall be.
