If the Avs go on some crazy run they won't be a wild card team and Minny is in the race...sure the more wins the better but its more about points in the end. You never know who you are competing with at the end. Vegas probably didn't think they were competing with Dallas for the last playoff spot this time last season.
I HIGHLY doubt playoffs or no playoffs comes down to Calgary vs. Colorado/Seattle

Beating the Hawks and the Jackets doesn't make us a lock for the playoffs either. The Flames need to win more of the the head to head match ups than they lose. If they beat the teams they aren't racing and lose to the teams they are, the chances of making the playoffs goes down big time.
