Asked this in another thread but didn't get an answer.
I get the first round, the top division winning team plays the lower wildcard and the other two division teams play each other. The winner of the top seed series plays the winner of the 2-3 series even if the wildcard team wins and is from another division.
My question is in regards to the second round. If the wildcard team beats the #1 seed and faces the #2 team then I assume the home ice advantage is still based on who has more points?
Example: Based on current standings the Pacific division would be:
Anaheim (home) vs Dallas
San Jose (home) vs L.A.
If Dallas and San Jose won their respective series then the second round would be San Jose (home) vs Dallas correct?
Thanks in advance.
