look at our roster tonight, do we really need more youth? I'd rather they focus on progressing together as a team than picking up a higher draft pick. Pittsburgh has the best player and they probably won't win the cup.
Don't care about draft spot. We have top 5 mentality in the league right now, few teams put forward the effort we do every game. That's more valuable than drafting a few spots higher. The pride in not getting disheartened and always working hard makes it an easy team to cheer for.

You take that mentally tough team and winning culture, I'll take Crosby, Toews, Malkin, Doughty and Price and we'll see who wins.
That "top 5" mentally tough team looks to be getting us two bottom 5 finishes in a row. Meanwhile Colorado are riding top 3 picks Duchene, Landeskog and MacKinnon to a play-off spot this year and bigger things likely in the future.
