After a hectic week of action that saw the Florida Panthers eliminated from the postseason on Friday, today is the final day of the Qualification Round of the 2020 Stanley Cup playoffs.
Yesterday, the Philadelphia Flyers got a pair of goal from Nicolas Aube-Kubel in a 4-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning. Philadelphia finished the Eastern Conference round robin with a perfect 3-0 record and earned the 1 seed, which means they will play the Montreal Canadiens next.
The Lighting (2-1) are the 2 seed and will face the winner of tonight’s marquee Game 5 battle between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Columbus Blue Jackets.
