The banner read "Day 1 of ~60" on day 2 of the playoffs because the old
anchor recorded whatever date we first polled a playoff game as Day 1.
Now round start dates come from /v1/schedule/playoff-series, so Day N
is authoritative and resets at each round boundary. Drops the noisy
"of ~60" denominator.

Turn a regular-season-looking Tuesday into a full playoff experience:
- Playoff banner with round + day + series + elimination counts, gold/silver
Cup theme toggled by body.playoff-mode
- Series context on each playoff card: round chip, series score, stake badges
(GAME 7, CLINCHER, PIVOTAL), and one-line blurb
- Game 7s pin to a new Spotlight section above Live
- Playoff OT renders with SUDDEN DEATH badge and pulsing gold border
- Client-side OT notifications via bell button in the banner
- New /series/<id> drill-down with headline, next-game, and game-by-game history
- New /bracket page: 7-column desktop grid, accordion on mobile
- Day N banner count auto-anchors on first playoff scoreboard hit
- SQLite cache for bracket + per-series schedules, stale-on-failure up to 24h

- utc_to_eastern: use zoneinfo instead of hardcoded EDT offset (-4)
so start times are correct in both EST and EDT
- standings: fetch before truncate so a failed API call doesn't wipe
existing standings data
- routes: call parse_games() once per request instead of three times
- scheduler: wrap run_pending() in try/except so an unhandled exception
doesn't kill the background thread
