Realistically thinking, that should play into the Kings hands. But then again.. this is the NHL we're talking about. Oilers will fall down easily, draw PPs nonstop. And proceed to destroy us.

No way of predicting yet with both Dallas and Colorado having 2 games remaining. If one could be sure of playing the Stars in Round 1 by tanking against the Ducks, one should seriously consider it.

It might be a mistake since they just kicked our ass, but I'd rather play Vegas in the 1st round over Edmonton. And Colorado or Dallas might be a better matchup for us but it would mean that we're losing going into the playoffs & I don't think we could beat anyone if that happens.

Speaking of playoffs, did anyone see the freakout with both the Penguins & Blackhawks fanbases after their game last night? Pens fans were angry that their loss pushed them closer to elimination & Hawks fans were angry that their win took them away from getting Connor Bedard. It was pretty funny.

Not funny if Anaheim gets Bedard.

To ad to the "mess" referenced in the title we need all the bottom-feeder- Bedard sweepstakes implications added on top of playoff possible match ups...i.e. Long term should we cheer for Ana to beat us to decrease their Bedard chances.Lol... Bedard - Zegras..ugh!, I have a headache. I say f* it..Just tell me who we're playing already!

O Captain, My Captain!
And here I thought this was one of the most thrilling and exciting regular seasons since at least 2015.

It was thrilling until about 2 weeks ago. Hopefully, 13 and 22 can return next week and make it fun again.
Go Kings!!

Mostly this. I think bored of regular season correlates more to the games not really mattering - to which I kind of agree. Feels like preseason at this point, except every game is an opportunity for another injury.

Easily. That seeding for so many teams in the West including both division winners came down to game 82 is insane. What a ride it’s been.
