By Wednesday the following games will have been played:
E=NG @ PIT (opens opportunity for LA to get home ice)
CGY @ NSH (of note as it opens up the opportunity for DAL to get WC1)
LVK @ DAL (for almost all the marbles)
LVK @ CHI (dependent on previous game)
ARI @ DAL (A loss to Vegas in RW probably makes this close to a must win)
LA @ SEA (depending on what the Oilers are doing, push for home ice)
I can't imagine the race will get prolonged much longer after these set of games.
Kings need a point (gained or lost by Vegas) to sew up the 3rd PAC spot. Then after that it is a 3 horse race for the final 2 WC spots that can end rather quickly if Dallas beats Vegas on Tuesday.
