We have the same exact record as them now. Picking up one point in our last game really did not help our cause. Imo finishing third worst is the worst thing that can happen for NJ and finishing first or second worst is the best case scenario. I Know everyone just wants to win a damn game but at this point I’m all for losing the rest of the way. It doesn’t make me any less of a fan. I want a third or fourth overall pick in this draft not a sixth overall pick.
It doesnt make you less of a fan but it does come across the wrong way sometimes, depending whos reading or hearing it
Just remember we only got Nico and Jack because we won a few games at the end of each of those seasons. So while everyone would agree a top-4 pick is 10000% better than a 5-7 pick, I also cant be mad or unhappy when they win a game and gain some confidence back and maybe gel a bit mOre with teammates in these last eight games.
im beginning the process of accepting that we dont get any of the big three dmen as we will slide to 4th at worst (as of today, because of Seattle) and then likely slide another slot to five (When someone behind us wins a lottery). I dont foresee the dmen making it to 5
If thats the case I then get picky and testy about the situation and demand I get one of Beniers, Eklund, or Guenther
