NHL playoff bracket: 2025 schedule, times, scores, TV channels for second-round series games, results.
The final matchup of the second round of the NHL's Stanley Cup playoffs gets underway Wednesday night when the Winnipeg Jets host the Dallas Stars. The Central Division's top teams advanced when they rallied to win Game 7 in the first round.
The other series are the Toronto Maple Leafs vs. the defending champion Florida Panthers, the Washington Capitals vs. the Carolina Hurricanes and the Vegas Golden Knights vs. the Edmonton Oilers.
The Florida-Toronto and Edmonton-Vegas series are repeats of 2023 matchups won by the Panthers and Golden Knights before they eventually met in the Stanley Cup Final. The Hurricanes ousted the Capitals in 2019, and the Jets and Stars have never met in the playoffs before.
Here are the matchups, schedule and results for the second round of the NHL's Stanley Cup playoffs (all times p.m. ET, series are best of seven):
