So, it looks like (barring a 10-game losing streak or the like) the Oilers are pretty much a lock for a playoff spot. It also looks like they are going to be either 3rd in the Pacific (if they catch Seattle) or the very last Wild Card spot (they're currently in the last position by points percentage, and Colorado is surging). I don't think Nashville or Calgary has a hope of catching Edmonton or Colorado or Seattle for the final Wild Card spots.
My questions are:
-- Is it better if the Oilers finish in 3rd or in the last Wild Card spot? (Bearing in mind they are generally much better on the road than at home.)
-- Who do you guess the Oilers will face in round one (a) if they finish as the final Wild Card, and (b) if they finish in 3rd Pacific?
