All series from here on out will be best-of-seven.
The Columbus Blue Jackets beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-0 in the final game of the Stanley Cup Qualifiers.
In each succeeding round of the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the greatest remaining seed in each conference will face the most affordable staying seed, the second-highest staying seed in each conference will face the second-lowest remaining seed, and so on.
Suggestion: the NHL has actually embraced a “Seeding Format” for this years postseason meaning this bracket will alter per round.
