I’m not saying it’s biased, perhaps it is, perhaps it isn’t, but having half of the series completing their second game before this series starts seems odd. Even Dallas have their first game ahead of oilers v Canucks.

That's the one that stuck out to me. Dallas gets a day off, Edmonton will have a week off.
Remember when the Stanley cup was awarded in early June? If this series goes to 7, the next series will start around the 22nd or 23rd of May. That's usually when the Stanley Cup finals start. The NHL needs to find a way to wrap up the playoffs in early June again. Nobody wants to watch hockey in July.
