Oh man, I forgot about that whole leap year argument from FLA re Ovi.

Pretty funny; good on them for getting creative - but also F you guys, lol

We got f'ed in those Dudley years. Not only did he try to draft Ovi 4 times, we lost out on the Crosby sweepstakes because of two 1st overalls we traded, one being to Pittsburgh.

Huh, didn’t realize that. Just that there were shenanigans to help PIT win that 2005 lottery cause the team threatened to move/fold
Teams that had 1st overalls in the previous few seasons had less chances. Can't remember the exact math, but, Florida had 2, which, checks notes, they used to draft Rick Nash and M-A Fleury.

Right, the Caps got screwed cause they won for Ovi.

I expect Gary to give the Pens McKenna or some other 1OA cause their fans basically boycott if they don’t have 2 superstars

Wah wah. The salty tears will be delicious when we get him with the Rangers pick.

Yea, so were a lot of teams that never had players like Lemieux, Jagr and had just drafted Malkin.

Anyways, I just find it interesting that teams that threaten to move (EDM, PIT) get showered with top picks.
I do too, but, at this point . . . It's a bit like arguing what Lindros might have been
