With the play-in round and round robin coming to a close on Sunday, the NHL has finally announced the schedules for the eight first-round NHL series, and that includes the schedule your Philadelphia Flyers will be on as they, the top seed in the entire tournament, take on the Montreal Canadiens.
That series will begin this coming Wednesday, August 12, at 8:00 p.m. ET. The dates of all seven games, as well as the times for the first four, are as follows:
