Full Stanley Cup Conference Finals schedule: Dates, times, TV channel, stream
With one team left to advance, the NHL has released the full schedule for the Conference Finals of the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
We’re not yet sure which of the Winnipeg Jets and the Nashville Predators will become the fourth and final team to advance to the Stanley Cup Conference Finals, but we know who the other three entrants will be.
And now, we know the schedule.
In the Western Conference, the No. 1 Vegas Golden Knights wait to find out if their opponent will be the No. 1 Predators or the No. 2 Jets from the Central Division.
The Eastern Conference Final is set, with the No. 1 Tampa Bay Lightning facing the No. 1 Washington Capitals in the latter’s first-ever Eastern Conference Final appearance in the Alex Ovechkin era.
And if you noticed we could see four No. 1 seeds advance to the final if Nashville moves on, you’re correct — this would mark the first time in history four division winners make it to the conference finals:
