The absolute best part of a 7 game series is that all these regular season oddities get ironed out. There's not much to hide in a 7 game series. Yeah you're goalie can get hot, but with less clutch and grab these days hot goalies don't steal series the way they used to. It's a team thing.
Vegas blows out Calgary then lays an egg against Edmonton? Who gives a flying eff in game 76? Talk to me after round 1.
All of this stuff doesn't even register this time of year. It's about getting ready for game 1.
If the playoff matchups stand as is, Calgary should beat Nashville and Edmonton should beat LA.
Then Calgary will mop the goddamn floor with Edmonton in round 2.
