NHL Playoffs 2016: Full schedule and times for Sharks first round series

The NHL finally decided to release playoff series schedules out of the goodness of their hearts and I’m pleased to pass it along to those who haven’t already grabbed it from one of 10,000 tweets over the past 12 hours.

Date TIME  #2 Los Angeles vs. #3 San Jose  Networks

Thursday, April 14  7:30 p.m. San Jose at Los Angeles  CNBC, CBC, TVA Sports

Saturday, April 16  7:30 p.m. San Jose at Los Angeles  NBCSN, CBC, TVA Sports

Monday, April 18  7:30 p.m. Los Angeles at San Jose NBCSN, CBC, TVA Sports

Wednesday, April 20 7:30 p.m. Los Angeles at San Jose  USA, CBC, TVA Sports

*Friday, April 22 TBD  San Jose at Los Angeles  TBD

*Sunday, April 24  TBD  Los Angeles at San Jose  TBD

*Tuesday, April 26  TBD  San Jose at Los Angeles  TBD

Regional networks broadcast the first round of the series, which means it’s likely we’ll get Randy Hahn and Brett Hedican on CNBC on Thursday night and throughout the series (perks to an NBC affiliate broadcasting games). We won’t know until later on what time the fifth-seventh games will be, but I’m willing to bet we’ll see 7:30 p.m. starts for all seven games with the possible exception being Sunday.
