2026 NHL Draft: Gavin up the season - McKenna the reason

[StanleyCup2035]

@Juxtaposer can change the thread title before 2026 draft lottery so that McKenna isn't mentioned for lottery good luck... Hopefully 2026 is the last time we have a good shot at a Top 3 draft selection.

I mean, we can also claim that we gave away Ehrhoff, so lets get Verhoeff, but we all know the grand prize:

McKenna, with 'elite, non-teachable gift,' has scouts excited for 2026 NHL Draft | NHL.com

Medicine Hat forward has points in 44 straight games, 'his trajectory is generational'

If we're still tanking in 2027 then we're well into Sabres territory. Let's hope we're not there.

Yeah, that wouldn't be cool....Now if we finish 11th from the bottom in 2027 and miraculously win #1 pick with our 3% odds, then fine

No we are NOT F&#@& TANKING anymore!

Halvin our wins for Gavin? I figure 10 wins guarantees last place

 

[PattyLafontaine]

Wait, I thought we were doing let's borked for Bjork?

We will never be in sabres territory…. We have palm trees outside of our rinks.

Dupoint for Dupont?

Disappoint for Dupont?

 

[CHALUPA]

There’s nothing more to want once we land Dupont

 

[Bizz]

Punt the season for Dupont.

 

[jarr92]

Abandon for Landon

 

[BaybayShark]

If it’s the 1st pick we’re havin’….we’re going with Gavin

All of these are terrible.

All of these are terrible.

They keep trying to make "fetch" happen

 

[timorous me]

Crash like the Hindenburg for Stenberg.

Too soon?

I mean it's a good thing if we don't get a good tanking thread name, it's time to focus to get outside of the lottery.

It’s going to be devastating when 2025 ends up being what’s that smell for Frondell.

Holy hell, we tanked for Frondell?

The mention of the Hindenburg is far less offensive than the attempted rhyme.

1.. "Sufferin’ for Schaeffer"

3. "Misa-palooza: One-way trip to the bottom"
4. "Zamboni drivin’, points declinin’, Misa’s the silver linin’"

Oilers will have an implosion and finish as a lottery team next year. Then, they will give us their 2027 unprotected first thinking they'll bounce back. They won't, and will win the lottery. We will have traded Jake Walman for Dupont.

This much we fell, only to get Frondell?
