There is one unusual part of the schedule in this series, as Game 5 will be on less than a 24-hour turnaround if necessary. You’ll usually see at least one off day between the overwhelming majority of NHL playoff games, but the bubble changes everything. And it will make for a very interesting battle as the exhaustion of playoff hockey and depth could be a factor.
