VladyIBELIEVE16 257 Report post Posted April 8, 2007 When will the actual playoff schedule be released? Is it on Monday? I haven't seen anything about its release date as of yet. I know the playoffs start April 11 and stagger starting the 12th. I'm so excited! Anyone, Anyone, Bueller, Bueller? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted April 8, 2007 Sunday night, or early Monday morning. They always release it the night of the last regular season game in the NHL. I actually heard the Wings could play Wednesday, Thursday OR Friday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hoogs 8 Report post Posted April 8, 2007 They just said on NBC that Dallas and Vancouver are playing Wednesday...........so somebody has the schedule, but they probably wont release it until after the Islanders game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mighty Wings 0 Report post Posted April 8, 2007 (edited) Starting on Friday doesn't make any sense. How the f*** do we start on friday and a lot of the other series start on wednesday??? when we start our series those some of them will be playing game 2.

I agree, it has to be either Wed or Thurs, I dont remember the NHL having 3 start days it was always 2 days. So actually if Holland was right about NBC on Sunday then the Wings would start Wednesday as well. Wednesday, Friday, Sunday, Tuesday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MacK_Attack 108 Report post Posted April 8, 2007 Schedule will be finalized this evening when they determine if it's the Islanders or Leafs playing against Buffalo. Obviously, if the Leafs get in, they need to set the schedules so that CBC/TSN don't have Canadian teams playing at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoogs 8 Report post Posted April 8, 2007 Just checked last years schedule and they had 4 teams each night, so we can basically count on the Wings starting Wed or Thurs night. My money is on Wednesday night Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hoogs 8 Report post Posted April 8, 2007 Well if Holland was right we start Wednesday night then: "4/15 1:00 PM Conference Quarterfinals Game 3" This would be Wings/Flames game 3 Also this would be nice for us that cant stay up super late during the week to watch the playoff games, Im hoping this is true.

CrossCheck24 2 Report post Posted April 8, 2007 I found out late this year that Yahoo has some game feeds for the regular season from Vs. Any news if Yahoo is going to carry any of the games? Or else its BW3s for me to watch any Vs. games.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
