It's time to get a little more organized here as we're running out of time to fit everything we need in so we can maintain our standard Entry Draft the weekend before the NHL holds theirs. With that in mind, I have looked over the calendar and come up with the following plan...
Regular Season ends June 2nd
Draft Lottery June 2nd
Playoffs begin June 4th
Expansion Draft July 10th
Entry Draft July 17th
See below for more details on each.
Regular Season
Starting tonight we will run an accelerated schedule to finish the regular season which will allow us to finish on Wednesday, June 2nd. There will be double/triple headers each night the rest of the way. Triple headers will happen when a game day comes up with 4 or less games. All other days with busier schedules will be double headers.
Here's a look at the planned schedule the rest of the way...

Draft Lottery
This schedule allows us to finish the day of the NHL Draft Lottery on Wednesday, June 2nd. We'll have to run games earlier than normal that day, which will help create a little last second drama for any shuffling in our standings, so we can all watch the results live as we pair up our standings with the NHL as usual.
Playoff Schedule
Playoffs will begin Friday, June 4th. We will sim both conferences each day and plan to have a rest day between rounds. Our finish date will depend on how many rounds have series that go 7 games but I expect to finish the playoffs in the first few days of July.
Expansion Draft
The Expansion Draft will be held on Saturday, July 10th. More details around protection lists will be shared by Brock closer to the date.
Entry Draft
The Entry Draft will be held the week before the NHL on Saturday, July 17th. The draft will be on Slack as usual. Exact start time will be shared closer to the draft.
