So WHO does Detroit get if they win ?
The other three Western series would have to play out to determine that.
Here's another way to look at it:
For the sake of this discussion, let's advance the Wings into the second round. Let's also assume that home ice will hold up for the remainder of the three other series.
That would leave us with: #1 San Jose, #5 Detroit, #6 Los Angeles and #7 Nashville.
The second round matchups would be Nashville vs. San Jose and LA vs. Detroit. AND the Wings would have HIA in that scenario! Hope this helps!
