The narrative is who doesnt want us in the 1st round. No one should, that's who.

You make a great point in that Calgary is the top seed and that they should as such be the team nobody wants to face yet aren’t getting the same love as Vegas. Having said that, I imagine Vegas is getting the attention that they are since they’re something like 10-0-1 from trade deadline day (or were up to recently) and as such are firing on all cylinders peaking at just the right time. They’re the hot team heading into the playoffs.
On the flip side, San Jose is 2nd only to Calgary yet have lost 7 straight or something against some fairly mediocre teams there within. So while San Jose is above Vegas, they are currently looking vulnerable by comparison.
