I prefer winning to having a potentially high draft pick, but YMMVSeems more an anti-tank engine given our record. He's ruining our lottery pick

I mean, remember all the Cups Eric Johnson brought us?
Or, all those Cups Edmonton ha won in the last 15 years?
Lottery picks are so essential

I prefer the short term setback for the long term success. Teams rarely win without top 5 picks. Sure you can name top 5 picks that didn't work out, but only 1 team wins a cup per year. More teams don't win than do win. And the ones that do almost always have a top 5 pick or more as a core contributor.

Buchnevich has looked better since Monty took over but he's still been uncharacteristically poor with the puck. A lot of his passes that he normally can thread through defenders are getting picked off or are slightly off the mark. I think there is some overthinking on his end but he just needs to keep it simple and try not to force plays that aren't there.
Yet the Blues won with only 1 top five pick in his prime in 2019. How many Cups do Buffalo, Edmonton and Ottawa have in the 2000s with all of their top 5s? Their is no sure path to the Cup through the draft, and the Blues were very unlikely to pick there with their current roster.
So, I prefer winning.
