Yeah, and the Bruins/Hurricanes played yesterday and today too. Since they run 5 games on some days we end up with 9 games in 2 days so a back-to-back develops. Here's some more up ahead:
-Colorado/Arizona 14-15
-Vegas/Chicago 15-16
-St. Louis/Vancouver 16-17
-None 17-18 (4 games each day)
-Montreal/Philadelphia 18-19
-Boston/Carolina 19-20 (AGAIN after this two-game set! Though 20th would be Game 6 so not yet guaranteed)
-None 20-21 (4 games each day)
-Columbus/Tampa Bay 21-22 (even though there's 4 games on the 21st, this series gets a back-to-back to give Boston/Carolina 2 days off before a theoretical Game 7 on the 23rd)
-Washington/New York 22-23 (would be Games 6 and 7, if necessary of course)

So every series gets hit by a back-to-back at least once, though Caps/Islanders only happens if it goes to Game 7 and others can be avoided with sufficiently quick elims.
