Yeah you can't really *blame* anyone for the lack of tank. I mean if there was any one move you could question it would be those final two Kiprusoff wins where he posted a .971 and .947 sv%. There was no need to play Kipper lose those four points and we're picking 3rd?
But yeah, that's just the way the cookie crumbled I guess. Still doesn't make it great and certainly doesn't make it anything to hang your hat on for pride's sake.
Sure we could get lucky and draft the diamond in the rough, or we could just be drafting the sure things in the top 3. I know, from a risk management perspective, what I'd rather be doing.
