What a crazy up and down season of hockey! Can't wait for 13/14.

This is what Edmonton was saying 3 years ago ^. They've had better draft position than we will have and I don't see much in the way of improvement. It's too easy to blame management there, what has management here shown us?
I am happy Iginla has moved on, has a chance at a cup, I am utterly disgusted with our drafting record that in the last 15 years, we basically have nothing to show from a Draft Day outside Dion, who was dealt for 30+ year old vets.
It's great to see the kids playing loose, but thats with the other team putting their #2 in net and looking past us night in and out.
I really hope there is some intellectual honesty about us drafting 4th,5th,6th vs. 1st, 2nd, 3rd. We have to right 15 years of wrong in 1 upcoming draft and we need 2 out of those 3 picks to be future NHL'ers.
