Anyone here follow the NHL?

I will watch some NHL playoff games but the playoffs last way too damn long. It takes over 2 months from start to finish. Way too long. Same with the NBA. Can someone please explain to me why they play a playoff game and then the next game is three days later??? And no, I'm not talking about where the teams travel to another city to play the next game, the game is taking place at the same arena. That just makes no sense at all. Play back to back nights. Then have one day off for a travel day. It's so hard to keep up with results and what team is winning the series. Same thing with the NBA. Enough already with dragging the playoffs out for so long.
I'm wondering if they should at least reduce the 1st round in NHL and NBA to best of 5?

That would be great if they did that. Or, what they should do is reduce the amount of teams that actually make the playoffs. 8 teams from each conference is ridiculous. The NBA used to have best of 5 games in the first round years ago. Not sure why they went away from that.

 
Been a Rangers fan forever. Goes back to the Omaha Knights days, Rangers farm team of the CHL. The unies even looked like the Rangers with KNIGHTS spelled out diagonally on the front, red, white and blue. Screw Philly and the Caps. One son is a Redwing fan, another a Pen's and my nephew is a Cap's fan (works for the Nationals). We just need to generate more offense, the defense is much improved. 94 BABY!
