There’s seemingly something on the line every night.– The Toronto Maple Leafs are now locked into a first-round matchup with the Boston Bruins, but they still have some milestones to shoot for, assuming they don’t rest their top players.
– If Lightning superstar Nikita Kucherov collects a single assist Wednesday against Toronto, he’ll reach 100 on the year and become the fifth player ever to reach 100 helpers in a season. The Edmonton Oilers’ Connor McDavid became the fourth on Monday, following Bobby Orr, Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux.
– While all four Eastern Conference matchups are set, only one Western series is known , and the other three matchups cannot be locked in until Thursday’s slate of games. The Dallas Stars can clinch the No. 1 overall Western Conference seed by collecting a single point Wednesday against the St. Louis Blues.
