As a lifelong Arizona sports fan I have learned one thing... we will never get lucky. Ever.
For the past couple years, I have cheered for a tank, and for the team to lose as much as possible for a better chance at a pick. It made complete sense the McEichel year, and we were a 2 goal Dave Moss performance away from getting Eichel (Seriously, f*** you Dave Moss). Plus, I was all aboard the fire our former coach train, and losing was building the case for that. But this year I decided I'm sick of cheering against my team, especially since you're not even guaranteed a top 3 pick. Cheering for a win is more fun, and getting on a role at the end of the year and building excitement, chemistry, and culture for next year is a whole hell of a lot more important than 7% better odds in a crap-shoot lottery that we won't win anyway (because Arizona).
So yeah, let's kick everyones ass the rest of the year.
