2024 NHL Playoffs bracket: Stanley Cup Playoffs schedule, start times, TV channels for Wednesday’s games

by admin

The 2024 NHL playoffs are in full swing, and many of the series have been nothing short of heart-pounding. 

The New York Rangers became the first team to advance as they finished off a sweep of the Washington Capitals in the opening round. The Rangers were able to hold Capitals star Alex Ovechkin without recording a point in the series, while forward Mika Zibanejad led the way with seven points (one goal, six assists).

The Florida Panthers have also advanced to the next round after topping the Tampa Bay Lightning in five games to win their series. Star forwards Aleksander Barkov and Carter Verhaeghe registered two goals and an assist apiece to lead the Panthers to a 6-1 victory in a decisive Game 5.

The Carolina Hurricanes and Colorado Avalanche made their way to the next round as they wrapped up their respective series in five games. Meanwhile, the Edmonton Oilers can become the latest team to advance if they defeat the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday.

The structure of the playoffs is as follows:

  • The division winner with the most points in each conference will face the second Wild Card team in the first round. The division winner with fewer points in each conference will match up with the top Wild Card team in the first round.
  • Each series will be a best-of-seven format.
  • Home-ice advantage goes to the team with the top seed in the first two rounds of the playoffs. The team with the most points in the regular season has home-ice advantage in the conference finals and Stanley Cup Final.

Below is how you can follow each series in the first round along with updating results and scores from each game. Bookmark this page for the duration of the playoff run to stay up to date with everything on the ice.
