    There are 2 ways for us to end up playing Vegas in round 1:

    1. We finish second in division and Vegas third. For that to happen we need to lose both remaining games in regulation (33% chance in each game to account for potential loss in overtime), Edmonton has to win both remaining games and Vegas has to win both remaining games. Just using the simplest statistical calculation (in each game each team has 50/50 chance of winning), the chance of all 6 games ending with these results are 0.7%. Even if we give Vegas 90% chance of winning both remaining games, the overall change only goes up to 6.6%.
    2. We win the conference and Vegas remains in the second wild card spot. For that to happen Dallas has to lose their last game in regulation, we win both remaining games, Vegas not winning the remaining two games at home against Chicago and Anaheim. Again, without overcomplicating the calculation and keeping Vegas chance of losing at 50% , we have a 3.1% chance of this scenario

    I would say, highly unlikely 🙂 

     

    Good break down 👍

    Thank you...

    F that negative loser talk... "we can't beat them, they are too big, too fast, too expensive.... their hair is too neat..."

     

    We get, who we get.... Just go out there and win the freaking games. 

     

    I would enjoy a NSH first round though.  Not necessarily matchup wise but just a team Im not as used to.
