Detroit Redwings Downfall

[ShakenNotStirred]

McDavid - #1 overall
R Nugent H - #1overall
Draisaitl - #3 overall
J Puljujarvi - #4 overall

Just how many top 4 picks do you need ? Detroit has had 1 recently - Lucas Raymond - #4 overall.

You are correct, my comment would have made way more sense if I said wings instead of oilers. I mean, what do you think the yzerplan could have done with ALL THAT HIGH END draft capital?

RNH, Yakupov, Puljujarvi, Hall... So many franchise changing players.
I understand why so many teams in the league are jealous of the Oilers draft gifts.

Gimme a f***ing break lol

Regardless, every team will take winning a handful of first overall picks, vs not winning, and improving chances of getting their McDavid.
Oilers had so many they literally changed the system.

And as the Oilers have proven, getting a 1st overall doesn't guarantee shit.
They didn't even have the 1st overall for McDavid, they won the lotto, they "earned" Hall, RNH and Yak. Woweee.

Team was shit, what can I say.
Then they changed the rules and it gifted them McDavid, that's on the NHL and every crying fan of other teams.

Lol, you don’t even know when they changed the rules, your team won so many times.

 

[Coffey]

your team won so many times.

So? They were mid players.
I wouldn't be jealous that someone picked Johnson, Dipietro or Stefan first.
