I really would like the NHL to move on and just starting playing games once the teams are decided and arena availability is known. Sadly, the league moves too slowly for the Oilers to play Saturday and T Mobile is booked Sunday so the series we care about wont start until Monday.. or Tuesday.. or maybe even Wednesday because TNT wants a big kick off for the second round on 'their' night. Would you bet against Wednesday and Saturday for Leafs / Panthers game 1 and 2? I wouldn't.

Schedule for the 1st round runs until Saturday. I think last year there was one series where there was a little overlap between a Game 7 and a Game 1 on the same day but that's a huge rarity for the NHL. I can't seen them starting Round 2 before Sunday at earliest.

It does seem funny that they're not announcing a bunch of games already with three of four series settled. They could really help fans out by just getting the dates set ASAP. Would make sense to go Eastern games Sunday and the Western games Monday...but as you say, the NHL loves to waste days and drag things out well in to June.

I have tickets to Game 3 and my strong preference would be for a Friday or Saturday game. Sunday would be okay, Monday would be awful as I'm out of town. So selfishly, I want to just get this thing started!

EDIT: Looks like Sunday May 11th is booked at Rogers already (Rock Stars on ice featuring Elvis Stojko)...so hopefully it is Fri or Sat!!!
