• If the Blues lose in regulation AND the Sharks win in regulation, the Canucks will play the Kings.
• If the Blues lose in regulation AND the Sharks win in OT or the shootout, the Canucks will play the Blues.
• If the Blues lose in OT or the shootout AND the Sharks win in regulation, the Canucks will play the Kings.
