I know Pike had an article about Flames should be rooting for Vegas to win the cup because the draft pick value of the picks. Although that assumption is them making it to the playoffs this year. Since the Pacific is so bad this year if they fall out of the playoffs they will probably drop down to the 10th to 13th pick. If it lands in that range the value of the pick alone would be better than a 31st and another late 1st in '28

At this point I am cheering for every Vegas loss possible the rest of the way. I am on the fence if I would be okay with them beating Edmonton in the two match ups they have left.
