If VAN wins and DAL loses in regulation, they also pass DAL (2nd)
The order is as follows:
32: Champs
31: Finalists
30: Conference finalist
29: Conference finalist with worse reg season record
then, the division champs that didn't make the final 4.
So at this point, the pick can be as good as 25th. If they beat WPG (and DAL loses), it could only be as good as 27th.

Also, if they get a single point against Winnipeg, they'll move ahead of Florida, making 26th overall the best it can be.
- Vancouver regulation loss = 25th
- Vancouver OT loss = 26th
- Vancouver win + Dallas win or OT loss = 26th
- Vancouver win + Dallas regulation loss = 27th
