Not sure how accurate it is, but I was led to believe reseeding would be done in the same playoff format as the last few years.
As in, bottom two teams would be wild cards.
Top two teams in each division are playing for 1st and 2nd in their respective divisions.
Next highest seeded winner becomes 3rd in their division.
1st in Atlantic plays lowest 'wild card', etc.
Not the case? - joel878
Not this year. They will be reseeding after every round.

I like your last point, but I'm still not a fan of the lack of consistency between partners. Just don't like it personally.
Don't need to dress 7 defenseman to achieve that last bit.
As my lead bit of evidence in it being a bad idea... I would like to state on the record that Steve Simmons seems to think it's a good idea. - joel878
You don't need to dress 7 d-men to achieve that last bit but I think platooning Sandin and Marincin covers all of your bases in a way that would be more effective than just suiting up one of them and hoping for the best. No way Sandin kills penalties anywhere near as effective as Marincin. No way Marincin provides any potential puck carrying capabilities near as effective as Sandin.
Rosen? Not sure if you want to gamble making him your choice as he's only played 4 games with the Buds and 12 games total this season. Sandin has played more than twice as much.
But yes, your last point makes me hesitate.

So where did I get the impression we could only play Tampa or Boston next round. 🤔

Also, I think we want Boston to beat TBL today. Would rather not have to count on Habs to avoid TBL next.
I’ve got a headache.
If you don’t test, there are no cases. I finally get it

Hopefully the Lightning play well today. It's a little too early to start hard drinking.

I was always amazed at how talented they were, and then how bad they were at writing songs simultaneously they also were

They were awesome, many bands from the seventies get zero credit, like Iron Maidon.

Nope, we want Boston to win. Gives s better chance to play Phil instead of TBL.
