At that point, even if they do not make it to the conference finals, we would be looking at a mid to late 20s pick from the Blues. Their remaining schedule is pretty comfy too with 7/10 games at home and most of their games against either bubble or non-playoff teams.
If both the Blues and Pens picks are between 25-30 then it will be that much harder to try to move up with them.
Hopefully the Avs will wake up and knock the Blues down a step. More likely though we will be relying upon the bubble teams (Stars, BJs, Coyotes) to put up a fight.

Yep, Blues are playing well, i think they have win 5 in a row. Right now they are in the 6th spot and if they play either Vancouver or Minni they will make it to the 2nd round. Need the Blues to lose some games and have to play the Ducks or Chicago.
