We’re on to round two where so far, the Penguins defeated the Canadiens, Islanders defeated the Panthers, Maple Leafs defeated the Blue Jackets, and the Rangers upset the Carolina Hurricanes. Meanwhile, the Flyers snagged the three-seed from the Washington Capitals, while the Bruins and Bolts held steady at one and two.
In the Western Conference, Edmonton defeated Chicago, Nashville beat Arizona, Minnesota defeated Vancouver, and Winnipeg beat Calgary. Colorado manages to snag the top seed from St. Louis, while Dallas overtakes Vegas for the three seed in the Western Conference.
With the matchups set for the round of 16, I’m predicting the bracket as is, with no reseeding.
