With the Southeast Division clinched and home ice advantage locked, the first-round schedule for the Florida Panthers–New Jersey Devils has now been finalized. The Panthers will host the first game of Series C on Friday April 13th at 7pm. The rest of the schedule follows:
Game One 4/13 @7pm New Jersey at Florida

Game Three 4/17 @7pm Florida at New Jersey
Game Four 4/19 @7pm Florida at New Jersey

National television providers can be found on the NHL page, though local networks(FSFlorida, MSG+) are likely to pick up the games also. Florida and New Jersey will each have 5 full days to rest before squaring off in Game One in Sunrise. And yes, it does seem a bit coincidental the the first game lands on Friday the 13th.
