I hope young team gel, and they all show big improvement and we go far . Screw 1st overall pick . I want something to enjoy. I changed me mind !
with so many wanting a loss to the Pens for a chance at Laf, it’s interesting that it’s not an option.
How does anyone Not pick Winning the SC??
How can any other scenario make you happier than winning the cup?
I see may a people have never attended the Vulcan school of logic.
Go to your room before I wash your mouth out with soap.I hope young team gel, and they all show big improvement and we go far . Screw 1st overall pick . I want something to enjoy. I changed me mind !
Like it?Because this is a sham format coming after a 4 month break in which a litany of teams, who would have never made it, are forced in.
Montreal winning the cup in this scenario, as the 8th worst team in the league, would further expose the covid invitational as the pale representation of a Stanley Cup play-offs that it is.
After a life-time of frustrating fandom, to witness my first cup win as winning -this- tournament? Would be like finding out someone paid the girl who gave you your first kiss. Yeah, you kissed a girl.. but did you really?
FascinatingWhy win the Cup when we could lose and have a one in eight chance of picking a player who might help us, one day, win a Cup?!?!

In hindsight, would have made more sense to hold the lottery after the 'play in' round.
Now fans will be hoping for their favorite team to lose?
Ridiculous!
That's a point of view. You say it's a sham, I say it is unprecedented.
We would be the only team in history to have to play 5 rounds and get 19 wins in order to hoist the cup.
Habs would make history again.
Fans would be like whatever dudes, you might have won the cup this year but remember 2020... Habs had to beat top seated teams in every round and won 19 games on the way to winning the cup.
What did your team do? A measly 16 wins against some top teams?
Your argument is weak.
And here I'll use your example to prove my point.
It would be like finding out someone paid the girl you first banged.
Yeah you had sex with a girl but did you lose your virginity? Hell yeah!
Fair enough.I respect your view but my opinion of it won't change and a lot of people feel the way I do, hence the skew of the poll.
I don't think my view is ridiculous at all, this doesn't feel like a natural conclusion to a season, just an arbitrary tournament in the middle of summer.
Now I remember why I don't read these boards anymore, fans cheering for their team to lose.
Hey, we didn't make the rules, they're not handing the Cup to anyone. You still have to play for it. If the last placed team goes all the way, all the power to them, makes it all the more deserving.''made the playoffs''
We were 12th place with 10 points behind , with 2 ahl line and we lost 4 times to detroit..
How can someone be happy that we make the playoffs , even if we were to win the cup , that wouldnt even be cool since our team does not deserve it at all. Any teams outside the playoffs does not deserve to win the cup.
The former will forever be put in doubt, for obvious reasons stated ad nauseum by many, while the latter, depending on circumstance, would probably never be put in doubt.
Also, if part of our own fanbase already recognizes its lack of legitimacy even if WE were to win that cup, now imagine if we indeed win it, imagine the other fanbases. It's gonna be even worst with them.
