March 9, 20169 yr comment_187606 I only remember winning games last year when all of our top D were injured...

March 10, 20169 yr comment_187766 4 points up on a team who is trying to win the draft lottery. Jesus.
March 10, 20169 yr comment_187767 Van beats Arizona in OT... perfect! LA four points back of CHI with games in hand... would love to see Chicago fall to 7th or 8th
March 11, 20169 yr Author comment_187968 Current Standings - Mar 10 - 940PM TOR - 55 WPG -59 EDM - 61 CAL - 61 Jets lose, Oilers win. Throwback Thursday.
March 11, 20169 yr comment_188087 I can't believe we've tanked past Edmonton. Toronto must be just crapping their pants right now as they can't figure out how to suck any harder.
March 11, 20169 yr comment_188088 Thing about Toronto is, it's not that they suck....they're just starting the Marlies in the NHL to see how they do.
March 11, 20169 yr comment_188091 And how many players on the Jets right now should be with the Moose? When Marko Dano is in your top six you ain't winning too many games. That being said, I have liked what I have seen from the kid the past few games. Any word on Ehlers?
March 11, 20169 yr comment_188101 Tanking is too easy... I'm now cheering for Chicago to fall apart. Dano will be a pretty good player - guy's only 21... only real problem is his back check - then again, that was Ladd's problem too this year... Watched the Chicago/Blues game, Ladd is a totally different player out there, super intense.

Watched the Chicago/Blues game, Ladd is a totally different player out there, super intense. He was just finding his game again, post-injury, when he got dealt. That, and playing on a line with Toews and Hossa, not to mention not having the stress of wearing a letter, will transform a player. Ladd is going to be a HUGE playoff pool pick-up for someone, I promise you...
March 12, 20169 yr comment_188113 They made a comment on sportscenter last night after the jets loss, but more pertaining to teams like Edmonton, and previously Pittsburg that were annually finishing last and getting #1. even tho they invoked the lottery claus, it was suggested a team that gets #1 pick, be eliminated the following year from picking #1 no matter where they finish. One guy suggested a 4 year disqualification (but maybe they could still pick as high as 4th) but I think 4 years is a bit much, maybe a year 2 tops. Anyways, they said it will likely be brought up in talks regarding changes in the offseason, is there any benefit/disadvantage to this? Edited March 12, 20169 yr by Taynted_Fayth

It's the fans who will punish them. I've never thought of EDM tanking. Buffalo last two years - yes. TO this year - yes.
March 12, 20169 yr comment_188115 I dunno if they said tanking in their spiel, but more the reality of teams that are constantly finishing last, or now thanks to the lottery, just getting 1st over all. kind of like, you got your 1st, now step aside and the lottery is then between the next 3 worst teams, but that team still picks 4th, which is still usually a pretty quality pick
March 12, 20169 yr comment_188118 The sad part is that I don't think most of these teams set out to tank.... Sure, Toronto is in full rebuild... but Edmonton, Jets, Calgary, Buffalo... none of these teams have sold off assets just for the chance to select Matthews... they just weren't as good as they hoped. Nothing's perfect can you imagine if say Pittsburgh just misses the playoffs and then wins the right to pick Matthews? Could happen...
