NHL Original Six Teams Update

In all likelihood, at most two, but at least one Original 6, NHL team will be in this season’s quarterfinal playoffs round.

The Boston Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs will almost certainly meet in one first round NHL series. Thus one will be in the NHL “quarters.”

Original 6 teams, the Detroit Red Wings, Chicago Blackhawks and the New York Rangers will not qualify for the NHL ‘offs.

Right now the Montreal Canadiens, the other original six team, are in a fierce race for playoffs qualification.
