I always find the minny, toronto and avalanche comparison to be weird. Sure Toronto has fallen spectacularly but that is mostly a hot goalie can trump everything else.
I'd be happy to be on Dallas's and Minnesota's path though. Dallas is having a horrid year due to bad defense, injuries, and even worse goaltending. If anything this is the freak season, not the ones where they did well.
Minnesota is Minnesota. Horrid goaltending is the only reason they aren't/weren't an elite team.
