Game Date Matchup Network TV Time/Score

*5 Thu., April 15 Calgary at Vancouver CBC 10:30 p.m.
*6 Sat., April 17 Vancouver at Calgary CBC TBA
*7 Mon., April 19 Calgary at Vancouver CBC 10:30 p.m.
These two series are going to be the best of the first round. But of course, only 3 of these games are scheduled to be broadcast on American television.
I find the Toronto-Ottawa series to be a hell of a lot more interesting than the Tampa Bay-New York Islanders series. But only Game 5 is scheduled to be on American TV (ESPN2). Bullcrap.
Hockey rules. Bring on Wednesday.
