 After 14 years out, not only did Buffalo make the playoffs, they're into the second round after beating the Boston Bruins 4-1 in game 6 and the series 4-2. They will get either Tampa Bay or Montreal. That has a 7th game.

 Anaheim Ducks knocked out the Edmonton Oilers 5-2 in game 6 and win series 4-2. Somehow I'm not surprised. Anyways, Anaheim gets either Vegas or Utah.
