In just a few weeks’ time, the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs will begin.
Yes, if you can believe it, the NHL regular season is almost over. It feels like just yesterday that we were looking at a clean slate across the board for all 32 teams. But somehow, nearly six months have come and gone and now, the playoffs are in sight.
But first, we have nearly two more weeks left of games to play. And there are a lot of things riding on these next few weeks, from the order of the upcoming NHL draft to the seedings for the playoff matchups to come. For some teams, their stories will continue on through April and late into the spring. For others, however, this will likely be the last time we talk about them in depth for some time.
