I'd rather have our young guys improve their game and confidence, than to keep the "gotta get the 1st pick" thought in their mind and distract themselves from winning. A young player should only have "win" on their mind and never "maybe we'll get a savior next season": for that can damage a career. Only Oilers have "losing is ok because good days are coming" attitude - the good days have not come, and they've all aged 3-4 years.
