The 2009 Stanley Cup Playoffs will begin on Wednesday, April 15, with four games -- three in the Eastern Conference and one in the West.

In the East, the New York Rangers will open their series against Washington, Carolina will be at New Jersey and Philadelphia will visit Pittsburgh on opening night, while in the West, St. Louis will play its first playoff game since 2004 when it opens its series at Vancouver.

One night later, the Eastern Conference champion Boston Bruins open the other East quarterfinal against Montreal. In the West, Presidents' Trophy winner San Jose opens against Anaheim, Detroit opens defense of its Stanley Cup championship by hosting Columbus -- which will be playing the first postseason game in franchise history -- and Calgary will visit Chicago.

The Carolina-New Jersey, Philadelphia-Pittsburgh and St. Louis-Vancouver series all continue on April 17, 19 and 21st. The Rangers and Capitals will take an extra day before playing Game 2 on April 18 at 1 p.m. before a national TV audience on NBC. That series then moves to New York for games on April 20 and 22.

The Montreal-Boston and Calgary-Chicago series will also resume on April 18, with Games 3 and 4 on April 20 and 22. Game 2 in the Columbus-Detroit series is on April 18, with Games 3 and 4 at Columbus on April 21 and 23. Anaheim and San Jose play Game 2 on April 19, then move to Anaheim on April 21 and 23.
