**** that, I hope they lose every game for the rest of the season so AV is gone for sure and they get the best chance at the #1 overall.

All in for Dahlin!
See but I'm realistic that won't happen. With Hank and how cursed this team is they wind up with the 9th or 10th pick at best while missing the playoffs. There is no way we are getting Zadina, Dahlen or Svechnikov. Coach will be gone after the season either way. This is a deep very talented draft so IMO it won't matter much if we draft 10th,11th,12th vs 17, 18th,etc.
It would be nice to grab a couple more firsts via trades because there could be some impact players in the 20-25 range as well.
 
With the long term injuries and the impending sale of important pieces, I think it's entirely plausible that this team finishes in the bottom 5-7.

I think 8-10 is way more realistic. I don't think any of those atlantic teams (thats 5 crappy teams right there) are even average enough to pass us by seasons end but we shall see. Who knows even about the Canes and flyers. Those Teams that have their issues as well. Oil, canucks and coyotes will continue the tank job because all they have there is a losing culture pretty much.

I agree 100%. If we had the option of locking ourselves into the 7th overall pick right now (pre-lottery), then I would take it in a heartbeat.

If it was so easy to stumble into a top 5 (pre-lottery) position while trying to make the playoffs for 2/3s of the season, then tanking wouldn't exist.

I didn't know a man had a cervix to strain. Is that tweet a joke?
Humans have cervical spines/vertebrae that are located up in the neck area. It's not a joke to call it a cervical strain.

Enjoy these lines courtesy of Stars writer Sean Shapiro. Don't know if we'll see this in warmups but that's how they skated this morning.

Vinni Lettieri: from AHL to top-six. What was that song? Let the bodies hit the floor?

I kinda like the Scandinavian "first" line.

Absolutely brutal, they're gonna be so much worse after the TDL too which is scary
 
Looking forward to another game of Desharnais skating non-contact circles and making that one good pass from behind the net.

It's not even scary, I've embraced it. This was bound to happen at some point. We're in a good position to recoup some exciting assets, the next few weeks will be fun. The reason I'll still be tuning in every game is mostly to watch individual performances, DeAngelo and Buch particularly.
