That’s true, but when I look at the matchups themselves, the Pacific scares me a bit. Possibly because of how the Flames have faired against the Pacific this season. But the LA Kings have given the Flames fits for a while. McDrai and the Oilers always get up to play their #1 rival. Vegas always scares me, especially a healthy Knights team.
So if I was to pick and choose, I’m gonna say facing the “higher ranked” Central teams would be the better choice for the Flames. Except the Blues, anyone but the Blues. That series would be an absolute blood bath and looks 50/50 at best. Bring on the Wild or Preds I say.
