Well the 2027 pick is still top 10 protected and would move to 2028 (if Vegas doesn't win the cup this year) or 2029 (if they do win this year and we get their 2028 1st instead) if they are bad enough next year.
So we would want to hope they miss the playoffs next year but don't win the lottery for maximum pick value, at least in the short-term.
