So glad that the playoff bubble thing is working out so far for the NHL. Zero positive tests!? Wow. Keep it up guys, I'm enjoying watching so much hockey right now. Missing the fans at the game though.

3 for 4. It looked good but then the Caps stormed back.

Might also have been the last day of afternoon games with some exceptions. We will see how the NHL wants to schedule it...but theres 4 series left, 1 game per bubble per day this round and next (except for the b2b days). Might get some afternoon games on weekends or holidays.

Damn you're right. Games start at 8pm today!! Thankfully there's daytime baseball and basketball.

Yes it was great while it lasted. I took this week in holidays to ensure I got the maximum amount of hockey.

oh my god you're brave. I remember back in the day staying up for Detroit games and it was brutal. But I was in highschool. So it wasn't that big of a deal.

Has anyone seen an up to date tally of how the home team is doing in these playoffs?

Haven't looked, but based on favourite vs underdog wins and who has generally been leading a series and when, I would venture that home teams are generally faring pretty well.

Awesome news.

So since there's no cover can they now tell us what all of the injuries are up to this point?
