As you choose to engage with this post rather than the one below it that actually has thought and reason....
You chose to make that post as well so don't blame people for responding to your own nonsense. I don't understand the need for you to mock everyone that may disagree with your takes.

I do. Karlsson and Malkin aren't even that good anymore and Crosby will be 37.
My worry is Pitts finally figure out what's the problem. Jarry was good and they got nothing from their depth. I don't think they'd be any worse next year. Doesn't mean they'll be better but I doubt they go even more downhill unless Crosby completely falls off.

It's not that easy to just fix your depth in an offseason as Dubas has learned repeatedly in both Pittsburgh and Toronto.

I don't think he ever tried. At least not in Pittsburgh. He seemed to go the opposite route, shipping out Granlund, Ruuta, Petry. Eller and Smith were ok pick-ups but he didn't really address the very obvious issue with that team.

He spent $15 million bringing in Smith, Graves, Eller, Acciari and Nieto to revamp their defense and bottom six. Every move has been a failure and not improved the team one bit year over year. He'll do the same thing again this offseason with different bad players.

What are you trying to achieve with this take? You're assumption they will get better with age is just predictable (meaning we ALL have 0 idea of the future) as ours that they will be worse.

Dunk on someone people when you have the ball....

They're still going to be 25% to make it behind the wings, isles, and Caps. They're in the fight but they need a lot of things to fall their way.

Guys, I hate to tell you this but the outcomes of the future are not actually based on what threads were started on HFboards. At least, that’s the going theory among experts.
Wait... you're telling me my over 6400 posts have had no causal connection to anything sharks related? And ultimately represent a futile effort to diffuse my anxiety which has little to do with sport, and everything to do with my chronic guilt?

You know, rereading your post, I actually think you may have ruined the Sharks.

My friend...not too long ago there was a thread where the majority of posters professed a belief that the draft lottery was rigged.

Clearly, many folks are unmoored from reality.

Yep, Friday and Saturday were bad for the Pens pick. They now have the best odds of DET, PHI, WSH, but still 38%.

I am 90% sure the Pens will have 95% chance of beating the Leafs and 100% chance of making the playoffs this year. Things always go the wrong way for the Sharks.

If pens make the playoffs, our pick sucks.
If the pens miss the playoffs, they will be 9OA and win celebrini, then win the cup next year, giving us 32nd overall.
