The Manchester Monarchs concluded their regular season Saturday and are now preparing for a first-round series against the Providence Bruins, starting Wednesday in Providence. The Monarchs finished with 88 points, good for fourth in the Eastern Conference’s Atlantic Division, while the Bruins finished first with 117 points.
Here’s the series schedule. I found it interesting that the series goes 2-2-2-1. Providence gets four of the first six games at home, but the seventh game would be at Manchester. Interesting setup…
Game 1 – Wed., Apr. 16 – Manchester at Providence
Game 2 – Fri., Apr. 18 – Manchester at Providence
Game 3 – Sat., Apr. 19 – Providence at Manchester
Game 4 – Mon., Apr. 21 – Providence at Manchester
*Game 5 – Fri., Apr. 25 – Manchester at Providence
*Game 6 – Sat., Apr. 26 – Manchester at Providence
*Game 7 – Mon., Apr. 28 – Providence at Manchester
