Shark Tank update!
The good news is that in points, the Sharks have dropped to 26th in the league, which would give the Bruins the 5th spot in the lottery. The bad news is the Sharks have games in hand on everyone, and the Pacific division continues to be a smoldering pile of ruins. LA is going to run away with the divisional title, that leaves the 2 and 3 spots. Those are currently occupied by Arizona (42) and Calgary (40). Arizona is a nice story but I don't think they can be counted on to stay there. Calgary is no great shakes, but them and the Ducks (39 points, still spinning their wheels) are our best hope.
Also, while looking at this, the Kings are going get screwed with this playoff format. Congrats! You've won the Pacific! Here's 100 point Nashville! Sorry, can't play the 86 point 3rd place team in your division!
