[Swic21]

With the pressure off, think maybe the boys will settle the hell down and just play hockey? I know the more we lose, the better the odds at a better draft position. But I can’t hope for losses. Can’t do it.

 

[TheKingPin]

This is a must win

[DancingPanther]

This franchise is simply riding their coattails as a genuine top of the line organization from the 70s to the start of the Hakstol era. The AV/Fletcher era is when the bubble pops. The cat's outta the bag folks.
