Plus if they face each other and we win our round the team that comes out of that matchup will be tired and bruised up for us. I would rather face Minnesota/Colorado/Vancouver/Edmonton in round 1.

Neither SJ nor VGK is scary. They both suck pretty hard on the road.
The key to winning a playoff series is to win your home games, and to win one game on the road. All three of SJ, VGK, and Calgary look equally capable of winning their home dates, but Calgary looks like far-and-away the best bet of the three to win a road game.
