Fair deuce

...and 82 games this year on the Sabres.

Yes Miracle on Ice is exactly what the Olympics were like every time before the darn pros ruined it.

FTFY

Sorry man

Or maybe the lottery is to determine the order in which the teams will draft who picks the lottery numbers.

Why stop at two? :wacko:

The whole article is available in 26CornerBlitz's post.

Yep sorry for putting words in your mouth. I was refuting the implication (that you apparently weren't making) that it's only a 25% chance for a positive outcome that some seem to exude. It wouldn't be the first time a team manipulated their roster for better draft position when a generational talent is coming available (Lemieux, Crosby). There's the organization's near admission it is/was/will be the plan (timeframe not stated, although they did reference that the next TWO drafts would be the building blocks). Add in Craig Patrick who drafted the last prospect touted this highly and saw him turn the Pens around. I don't have to look much further than these facts as well as analyze recent trades, roster moves, and player selections on game day and it's not too far a leap to imagine it's not beneath them to tank next year too.

Check out the names in my signature and tell me losing the lottery is the end of the world.

Woah aren't you the one with the man-crush on Weber?

Or this is an example of "manipulating the roster".

Dominic Moore also?

:wub:

@$835. $440 on Edmonton Pregame edit: $330 on Edmonton

Movable object: -110 Resistable force: -110

I guess we'll find out what happens when the resistable force meets the movable object.

Edmonton has to be thinking the opposite of Buffalo. "There's no way Buffalo drafts another defenseman here." Why would they trade up? Unless they were worried Buffalo would trade the pick to another team that would draft Ekblad.

Al Kotalik 2.0

That's likely because Moulson's right hand has been replaced with a hook.
