No. The Clippers have made the playoffs four times, losing three times in the first round (Utah twice and Houston). The only playoff series they won was in 2006 when they defeated Denver in the first round. They lost to Phoenix in the second round.
In the 1970 draft, in the first round by the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Boston Bruins swept their hated arch-rivals from Montreal in the first round of the 2009 playoffs.
They defeated the Miami Heat four games to one.
In the 2007 playoffs, the Ottawa Senatorsdefeated the Pittsburgh Penguins, four games to one.
The Flyers were eliminated by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the first round of the 2009 playoffs in 6 games.
No one from the current team. The Penguins gave up a conditional seventh-round pick in this year's draft. The pick turns into a sixth-rounder if Pittsburgh reaches the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs and Kovalev appears in at least 50 percent of the first-round games.
The New Jersey Devils played the Pittsburgh Penguins and were eliminated in the first round, losing 4 games to 1.
