No individual team is necessarily guaranteed to make the playoffs, I agree. But three teams from the Pacific will no matter what. My aim is to look at who we are most likely going to have to beat to keep our current playoff position. And of Anaheim, LA, San Jose and Vancouver, the Sharks are obviously in the weakest position. If we stay ahead of them, everything else will take care of itself.
