I'd take 4 playoff games and the hope it can be more over giving up and then hoping we draft someone who won't be a Moose player for the next 10 years.

There's playing to win, and there's playing to win the Stanley Cup. If we want to be a better team next year, something needs to change and we certainly can't count on adding top FA's.

All that said, I recognize the value of competing with guys like Lambert and Rosen around and not bringing them up into a losing culture. I just would have liked to see them get more than 9 minutes a night and see if there was some 2nd line potential there.

The Als lost Darnell Sankey to BC, so I guess this move makes sense.

That's fair. I'd much prefer they get in at this point, too. I'm just not optimistic about their chances against a deep and seasoned juggernaut like the Avs.

And to be clear, I don't think embracing the tank was ever an option. It just looked that way for considerable stretches of the season, and the potential of landing that high pick seemed within reach.

Much needed win for the Blue Jays. LA is very good and we had to fight for every inch.

agreed, but i think they've waited too long to get serious and its a looooong shot if they get in

It's been nice to see them put up a fight the last month or so to stay in the playoff discussion, but The Whiteout would be short-lived should they make it in, IMO.
