What days are the first 2 playoff games?

Anyone know when the first couple of games in the first round are likely to be played. I am trying to set up a flight for a weekend. I recall Mick saying something about the 10th last night...

If it's like last year, then the 1st game(s) will be played on Wednesday, Thursday, and/or Friday night - the 9th, 10th, and/or 11th.

I'm pretty sure last season it was spread out funny like that(over 3 days).

Didn't the Wing's play on Thursday night and then Saturday afternoon to kick things off last postseason?

The Red Wings first playoff game is April 10th. Babcock said that in an interview earlier this week on MLIVE.

So in all likelihood, game 2 would be Sat or Sun?

Probably Saturday so that we can jump on a plane and play game 3 on Sunday. This is how Gary likes to schedule. New York can play New Jersey and get a week off between game 2 and 3, Detroit can travel and play back to back with Vancouver or Calgary.
