I get the statistical possibilities with respect to the Blue's pick next year, but looking at their division, I don't see any realistic chance of them not making the playoffs. As I see it:
Chicago
St Louis
Minnesota
Nashville
Dallas
Winnipeg
Colorado
Three of those teams would have to pass them.
Minny? sure.
Nashville? maybe
Dallas? unlikely
Winnipeg? unlikely
Colorado? unlikely
3 of those 5 teams? Highly unlikely
So I'll take this year's pick, thank you very much
