As expected, Tuesday's games resulted in many playoff seeds being clinched:
The Washington Capitals nabbed the second Eastern wild-card spot with their win over the Philadelphia Flyers.
Thanks to their win, and the Boston Bruins' loss, the Florida Panthers are Atlantic Division champs, which sets up the ideal first-round matchups (for fans of heated rivalries): Panthers-Lightning and Bruins-Maple Leafs.
The Vancouver Canucks locked up the No. 1 seed in the Pacific Division, and are now confirmed to take on the Nashville Predators in Round 1.
