The 2025 NHL Playoffs are here ... who prevailed in the Battle of Florida to open the playoffs and face Toronto in a tough second-round matchup. Translation: it's a wide-open race.

The Maple Leafs have failed to reach the conference finals nine years in a row, unable to pass round two amid intense fan pressure and tough Game Sevens.

With a 3-0 win in Game 4 on Monday, the Carolina Hurricanes finally put an end to a 15-game losing streak in the Eastern Conference final. But the odds of a comeback against the reigning champs are still slim. According to The Model ™️, the Canes have only a 10 percent chance of advancing.

The NHL’s playoff final four has a very familiar feel. The Western Conference final is a rematch of the same round last year with the Dallas Stars facing the Edmonton Oilers.

With two assists in Saturday night’s 6-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Final -- his third straight multi-assist game -- Rodrigues became only the sixth player in NHL history to record multiple assists in each of the first three games of the Conference Finals.
