Obviously anything is possible but I think if you're objectively looking at first round match ups, we match up nicely against anyone and would have a good chance of winning in any spot but last. Chicago would likely be short playoffs for us.
I'm interested in the Pacific race, but unlike most, I'm watching that Flames/Preds/Blues race as the real critical goal, a playoff series itself. However comes in third is in real tough to create a playoff run.

I think we're all watching it.
However, I am not particularly scared of the Hawks - I think we match up pretty well. IMO, the best matchup would be either the Sharks or Oilers. But if it's the Hawks, I say: bring it!
