Tonight the Toronto Maple Leafs officially confirmed they will be playing the Boston Bruins in the first round of the playoffs. Now it has been revealed when Game 1 is expected to be played.

The schedule for the Stanley Cup playoffs is now being constructed with the matchups being determined. It has been revealed that the Toronto Maple Leafs will play their first game onSaturday April 20th against the Boston Bruins.

Saturday April 20:
#Isles at #CauseChaos
#LeafsForever at #NHLBruins

Sunday April 21:
#ALLCAPS at #NYR
#GoBolts at #TimeToHunt

The Eastern Conference is set. Here's what I believe the Game 1 windows will be for each series:

Saturday:
5:00 p.m. ET: Lightning-Panthers (TBS)
8:00 p.m. ET: Maple Leafs-Bruins (TBS)

Sunday:
12:30 p.m. ET: Islanders-Hurricanes (ESPN)
3:00 p.m. ET: Capitals-Rangers (ESPN)

If you are in the United States it looks as though the first night of the playoffs will be featured on TBS. This huge divisional matchup will surely provide a ton of drama and good hockey to get the playoffs going.
