Oh. Thanks for clearing that up. So winning the round robin will give far more advantage than just getting last change. They will also get the lowest seed opponents.
Yes, top seed of the RR games gets the lowest of the 5-12 teams remaining, and vice versa - but remember, those 5-12 seeds are indeed based on regular season standings. Regular season standings - which include games that will have been played over 10 months ago! That's one reason I don't take seeding too seriously.
Also, for the 1-4 seeding post-RR, the "score" is based on just the 2*W + OTL + SOL for 3 games, so a max of 6 points. But any tiebreakers will be determined by regular season standings - which we have locked.
If you want to know who to root for this afternoon in the TBL/WSH game - root for whoever gets the first goal, and root for that goal to come fast. A game that goes into OT is very bad for the two teams that aren't playing.
