Don't think I would go with either team in the final four as an example of getting burned by it.
Columbus, Florida, Edmonton. You can be down there for awhile but it is just as much an act in luck of when you suck and who is in the draft during that time.
It looks like the next three years are good years to be really bad, as good as it has been since around the run on talent starting in 2003 for a couple of years.
Will be interesting to see who stays down there, the Flames didn't stink quite enough, but might still get lucky this year and be down there to collect Ekblad and McDavid then look out. There three picks in row would basically be a better time to have been down there than the Oilers.
It is about timing and luck, somebody is probably going to come out of the next three or four years with a monster future if it breaks right though.
