The schedule may have just been released for the NHL playoffs, but one concert in Winnipeg had to change its date to accommodate the Jets-Blues series.

Jets fans can officially start planning, as the entire first-round playoff schedule is out now. The Winnipeg Jets will start their series against the St. Louis Blues on Saturday at 5 p.m. CT, with Game 2 on April 21 at 6:30 p.m. CT, both at Canada Life Centre.

The series then heads to St. Louis for Game 3 on April 24 at 8:30 p.m. CT and Game 4 on April 27 at 12 p.m. CT. Games 5, 6, and 7 on April 30, May 2, and May 4 are scheduled, if needed. The times for those games have yet to be determined.

As they are the higher seed, the Jets have home-ice advantage and would host Games 5 and 7.

The Bachman-Turner Overdrive concert had to be rescheduled

Since Game 1 is a Saturday, True North Sports and Entertainment has rescheduled the Bachman-Turner Overdrive concert scheduled for that evening to the Sunday instead. Tickets already bought will still be honored.

In a release, Randy Bachman wrote, 'As a Winnipegger, born and raised, I am thrilled to see the Jets take their best-in-league record into the playoffs. I will be at Game 1 on Saturday, loudly cheering 'Go Jets Go,' and look forward to playing with BTO April 20 at Canada Life Centre.'

Additionally, True North is also giving away game 'Whiteout Watch Party' tickets at Canada Life Centre. Tickets for Games 3 and 4 are available now on Ticketmaster for $10. Attendees at the parties will receive a free rally towel.

Proceeds of the sales will go to the True North Youth Foundation.
