Still cannot believe Carolina, Tampa and even Nashville crashed and burned bad enough to finish below us in the standings.

Made the 2 or 3 loudmouths personally attacking anybody cheering for a better pick in the gamethreads happy for a night or two anyway.
Spilt milk now and honestly from all I've read about Lindholm and Monahan I think either would be a really nice piece to start rebuilding around with Baertschi, Brodie and Backlund. Hopefully if we do move up we don't give up more than the Pens pick. Two 1sts in this draft would be a nice start and that 22nd pick will bring in a really nice prospect.
It's going to be a long road to contention for this team and one player won't turn the team around in one season, will probably be a couple drafts before we have a shot at a cup again anyway
