Round 1 is done. Round 2 is here. And the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs just got a whole lot more interesting. The Carolina Hurricanes steamrolled their way through Ottawa without dropping a game β and they haven't slowed down, opening Round 2 with a shutout of the Philadelphia Flyers. Colorado looked every bit like the Presidents' Trophy favorite, sweeping the Kings and then dropping nine goals on Minnesota in Game 1 of the second round. The Avalanche are built for this moment, and they're playing like it. Meanwhile, Anaheim's run through Edmonton was one of the bigger upsets of Round 1, and now the Ducks get a shot to prove it wasn't a fluke. In the East, the Atlantic bracket is a fascinating matchup β Buffalo's improbable run through Boston has the hockey world buzzing, and now they draw a Montreal team that just survived a seven-game war with Tampa Bay. Both of these teams have exceeded expectations, and one of them is going to keep that story going deep into May. We're breaking all of it down live.

The Grand Rapids Griffins answered in a big way in Game 2 against the Manitoba Moose β and it was short, sweet, and dominant. After being shut out in Game 1, Grand Rapids flips the script with a 2β0 win, powered by a clutch performance from Michael Brandsegg-Nygard and a perfect night from Michal Postava. π₯ THE MOMENTS: Michael Brandsegg-Nygard opens the scoring with the game-winner on a power play late in the first period William Wallinder adds insurance (from MBN!) Michal Postava stops all 30 shots for the shutout MBN finishes with a 2-point night (1G, 1A), and Postava delivers under pressure as the Griffins tie the series 1β1 in this best-of-five battle. It may be just two goalsβ¦ but this one is beautiful hockey. π― What this means: Momentum swings back to Grand Rapids as the series shifts β and the Griffins prove they can break through when it matters most. π Donβt miss more Griffins playoff coverage and Detroit pipeline updates right here on the channel! #Griffins #GoGRG #CalderCupPlayoffs #AHL #Hockey #GrandRapidsGriffins #DetroitRedWings #RedWingsProspects #MBN #BrandseggNygard #Postava #HockeyHighlights #GoalReel #PlayoffHockey #AHLHockey
