The NHL playoffs are here! No, the New York Islanders aren’t in it, but it should still be wildly entertaining as 16 well-qualified first-round combatants go at it.
And they’re doing it old school, with four series starting tonight followed by the other four starting tomorrow. (Alas, it’s not ‘80s old school, when the West/Campbell Conference would play one night, the East/Wales Conference the other, for two weeks of non-stop delight.)
