On today's episode of Locked on Wild, we look at the Western Conference Postseason picture as the list of teams fighting for spots continues to shrink. We start with the Central Division, as the Colorado Avalanche have made their move. Can they vault ahead of Winnipeg or Dallas (or both?) by season's end? We look at the mounting overtime losses continuing to haunt Dallas and why the Winnipeg Jets need to hope they stay ahead of the Wild. We move to the Pacific Division, where the Vegas Golden Knights have found their footing despite losing Mark Stone. We look at recent struggles for the Seattle Kraken, the Kings' continued tendency to score tons of goals while giving up tons themselves, and the Oilers continuing to try to keep pace. We list the teams realistically fighting for Wild Card spots, while teams like the St. Louis Blues fight an uphill battle after selling off key pieces in Vladimir Tarasenko and Ryan O'Reilly. Which puts the Wild in a position where they may not truly ever be out of the postseason picture, even if they make lateral moves at the deadline.
