We’re on the outside and we’re looking in: SCH previews the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs -
It’s yet another postseason without the Blackhawks in it, but that doesn’t mean we won’t be watching! With the playoffs starting this weekend, the SCH crew gathered to offer some of their thoughts on it. Western Conference Colorado Avalanche (No. 1 overall seed) vs. Los Angeles Kings (WC2) Dave: I initially created this article about a week before the end of the season, when we still didn’t know who’d win the second wild card spot, inserting “who cares” as a placeholder. Even though we now know the identity of that team, it still doesn’t matter because Colorado is going to eviscerate them. Anything beyond a five-game series would be a shock and the expectation is four. Avs in four. Eric: At least the Kings can move on to getting pantsed in the playoffs by a different Western Conference contender this year. The Kings playing boring a

Where the Montreal Canadiens rank heading into the playoffs -
The Montreal Canadiens secured their playoff spot relatively early this season after needing a win in the final game in 2024-25 to punch their ticket. They separated themselves from the wild-card pack during an eight-game winning streak, and were tied for top spot in the Atlantic Division as late as April 12. Despite going into the post-season playing on the road as a divisional third seed, the Canadiens ended up sixth overall in the league standings. Five of the top nine clubs were from the Atlantic, turning it into the most competitive division after the Central Division had been granted that title for much of the season. The 106 points tell a story of a team that took a significant step from a season ago when they finished with 91. We’ll dive deeper into their play to see where they rank in other areas as they prepare for their opening playoff game on Sunday. 7th Hits A team with two of its top three players being the 5
