Honestly I'm happier watching these kids play well and learn how to win then tank for a draft pick. Imagine all your life your coach and parents tell you go out there and give it your all to win.
Then you finally get to the pro's and your coach/management team says ok here's the plan. We are gonna lose as many games as we can for the rest of the season.

^ I'd say it's a done deal considering they have made it public that management is directing how he coaches the team the rest of the season and acknowledged that he doesn't agree with them.

boucher 2 goals, boeser 1, and then the leafs lose to buf, Anderson gets injured.
This leaves them 4 pts up on 10th with no starting goalie.
day just keeps getting better

Definitely worth a watch. Brock's dad has Parkinson's disease and his mom works 2 jobs to support them.

Winning with the kids is is a good thing. Last thing we want is whatever that poison they have in the avs organization. How the kids are looking forward to their vegas trip.

Tell that to Chicago when they were able to draft Kane and Toews, tell that to Pittsburgh when they were able to draft Malkin and Crosby. This isnt the boy scouts where we have to be ethical and shit. Sometimes u gotta do bad things in a bad situation. Theses kids arent stupid, they know the NHL is a business, 10 games of losing isnt going hurt their development. Did we already forget who drafted Matthews and Laine?

Look at all the years of tanking Edmonton did, until #97 came by they were still getting nothing done.
From everything I have read or heard, this upcoming draft does not have the talent like last years players, or any of those franchise superstars listed.

Did we already forget who drafted Matthews and Laine? | The draft to absolutely tank is next seasons. The top 2 guys (Svechnikov & Dahlin) are projected to be like Ovechkin and Karlsson. The scouts are saying that Dahlin is doing even better than Lidstrom and Karlsson were at their age.
