Here’s the full schedule for the Stanley Cup Playoffs 2018 series between the Vegas Golden Knights and San Jose Sharks

During the Stanley Cup Playoffs 2018, only two teams swept their first-round series. Those two teams? The Vegas Golden Knights and San Jose Sharks. While the former swept the Los Angeles Kings, the latter swept the Anaheim Ducks. The two Pacific Division teams will now square off in the second-round.

Their series officially starts on Thursday, April 26. Now that the rest of the second round bracket has been filled out, the league has released the schedule for the remainder of the series. Here’s a look at the schedule for the Golden Knights and Sharks.

Though both teams are well-rested after getting their respective first-round series done quickly, they don’t get much a break in the second round. Games will be held every other day, giving them no extra rest or travel days. Luckily, Vegas and San Jose aren’t too far apart. They’re only 525 miles away from each other, which should make the grueling schedule slightly easier for the players.

The Golden Knights are hoping to continue their magical run. They recently became the first expansion team to sweep a postseason series in the modern era. On the other side of the ice, the Sharks are doing well despite not having Joe Thornton. If they can get him back healthy, he could be a huge difference maker in the series.
