The NHL Playoffs are officially underway, and in this episode we break down every first‑round series and how each matchup has unfolded so far. We start with a deep dive into the Buffalo Sabres vs. Boston Bruins series — momentum swings, standout performances, key adjustments, and what each team needs to do to take control. From there, we go around the league and analyze every playoff series: who’s dominating, who’s struggling, the biggest surprises, and what we expect for the rest of the first round. Whether it’s overtime chaos, breakout stars, or early storylines shaping the bracket, we cover it all.
