The good news is, so far anyway, there are no afternoon games. The bad news is, just like last year, not a single Saturday night game. With that said, it's not all bad. Both weekend games are in Ottawa, which means that if you really want, you could take a weekend trip to Ottawa and see as many as six games in this series (If it goes that long) without missing work.
While only the first four games are scheduled to be broadcasted it the United States, expect the other games to be picked up as well.
Sportsnet has announced that Paul Romanuk will get the call for the Habs' series, with Mike Johnson and Glenn Healy doing colour commentary, and David Amber reporting rink-side. Chris Johnston will cover the series for Sportsnet online. This is about as A-Team as it gets with Sportsnet, minus Healy of course.
