Surely you aren't suggesting they should lose on purpose to finish 2nd?

That would be silly since you'd have to play that team at some point, in round one or round two and certainly if you're a team like the Flames and finishing 2nd potentially means giving home ice advantage to a team like Vegas, Anaheim or San Jose that could prove a difficult test for the second round.
Was just thinking that whoever finishes first in the Pacific is going to get tested really early.
