The 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs of the National Hockey League (NHL) began on April 14, 2010, after the conclusion of the 2009–10 NHL season.[1]
Playoff seeds
After the regular season, the standard of 16 teams qualified for the playoffs. The Washington Capitals were the Eastern Conference regular season champions and the Presidents' Trophy winners with the best record at 121 points. The San Jose Sharks earned a number 1 seed in the Western Conference with 113 points.

- New Jersey Devils – Atlantic Division champions, 103 points
- Buffalo Sabres – Northeast Division champions, 100 points
- Pittsburgh Penguins – 101 points
- Ottawa Senators – 94 points
- Boston Bruins – 91 points
- Philadelphia Flyers – 88 points (41 wins)
- Montreal Canadiens – 88 points (39 wins)

Playoff bracket
In each round, the highest remaining seed in each conference is matched against the lowest remaining seed. The higher-seeded team is awarded home ice advantage, which gives them a possible maximum of four games on their home ice, with the lower-seeded team getting a possible maximum of three. In the Stanley Cup Finals, home ice is determined based on regular season points. Thus, the Washington Capitals will have home-ice advantage throughout the playoffs. Each best-of-seven series follows a 2–2–1–1–1 format. This means that the higher-seeded team has home ice for games 1 and 2 and if necessary, 5 and 7, while the lower-seeded team has home ice for games 3, 4, and if necessary, game 6. Template:NHLBracket
