Relegated or not, if they continue to be this bad I feel like they shouldn’t be eligible for the draft lottery. If you tank this horribly and blatantly the league should just give you pick #4 and say “next year, at least try icing a real roster”.
I agree. Also just to really get the message across Will Smith should be given to a team that never tried to tank ie us

Georgiev has stats virtually identical to his last season with us. Dude can only play when he's not when he's not he's a bottom of the barrel goalie.

Did you all see the goal Bedard scored last night? It wasn’t really anything special, he just got some space along the wing on a partial break and beat the goalie with a good shot.

When is the last time we scored a goal like that? Just a good shot that beat a goalie one on one.

I simply can’t imagine Laf or Kakko scoring like that. Laf has it in him to do so, but they just don’t do it.

I can’t imagine anyone on this team scoring like that besides maybe Panarin .

The shit show that is/was the Chicago Blackhawks continues; no wonder why Joel Quenneville/Stan Bowman haven't been re-instated by the NHL by now (not that this would be new, just that a 2nd victim has come forward, though not publicly identified themselves)...

I still find it hilarious that the Senators were docked a 1st rounder for incompetence & Chicago was given a fine & what amounted to slap on the wrist for this.

I don't need to hear about the CBA, etc etc. Only the NHL could look so completely f***ing incompetent.

What a scumbag this Aldrich is. Infuriating that a person like him could rise the ranks and then after leaving the Hawks be allowed to continue to work with children/young men

Have you heard of the MLB and Houston Astros? It’s not just isolated to the NHL.

The San Jose Sharks should unironically be awarded Connor Bedard and the Blackhawks stripped of him.
Connor. Welcome. I want to work with you on the defensive side of the puck. Put your bags over there, someone will take care of them. Let's get to work. First, your defensive positioning. I've watched some tape of you ahead of your arrival. It can be better. I'm David Quinn, by the way.

"You'll start on the 3rd line so the temptation isn't there to get all fancy schmancy while you have a ECHL level bottom pairing backing you up. Have fun!"

Hell of a fun read but is filled with echoes of our own team:
