The too early Stanley Cup 2026 Playoff Thread

[donlever]

Were the post season to commence today:

EAST

Sabres host Bruins - close but Sabres - 6 maybe
Tampa hosts Habs - close but Tampa - 6 maybe
Canes host Jackets - upset special? - Canes in 7
Islanders host Penguins - coin flip - Pens in 6

Columbus could get bumped still...Ottawa or the Wings most likely to do so.

WEST

Avs host Preds - cake walk - 5 games max
Stars host Wild - 50/50 - someone is gonna be bummed - Stars 7
Ducks host Mammoth - why Verbeek brought in vets - Ducks in 7
Oilers host Knights - why Torts was hired - Vegas in 7

Vegas could still get caught. By LA would be most likely. Preds still have Kings, Seattle, Sharks, Jets and Blues in striking range for 2nd WC.

Let's hope it's a good one.

You might want to clean up that typo in the title there, Donald.
