Looking at the standings and that devils win really screwed us.

Meh I've said this a bunch, but I don't think there's a difference in the caliber of prospect the Penguins would get at #5 versus #7.

They would have had to lose about 3 more games to be really pushing Boston for that #4 spot for their draft position to really matter IMO. I don't think Eklund, Frondell and Desnoyers in the 5-7 range really make a difference.
 
Nice. Leaves plenty of room for Koivunen to get his goal and for Sid to get 1-2.
 
This loss basically locks up the Penguins at the #7 or #8 pick, and Buffalo winning tonight locks them up at #7. Just hope the score stays as is.

If we lose tonight and against Washington and Seattle wins, they jump us don't they?

Sabres would also have 3 games to make up 2 points.

Flyers 2 games to make up 2 points.

Yeah Philly can also jump them by winning their last 2. I'm just not holding my breath on that happening.

Any of #5-#9 is possible with a loss tonight, but #7 becomes the overwhelmingly most likely outcome.

I wonder if they should just pull guys like Koivunen out of team practice and work one-on-one with skating coaches. Maybe experiment with some different skate cuts and rockers. If scrawny thighs are his issue get him in the gym.
