Avs are a perfect example of why the whole tanking issue is a load of crap. You people really believe the Avs purposely sat O'Reilly because they thought that would make them the worst team in the league? It couldn't have been a contract dispute could it? Like we saw again this off season. Then when he did sign they probably told him to coast for the rest of the season. Oh wait it was the coach. They knew if they kept their Jack Adams finalist coach and former AHL coach they would finish 29th and win the lottery. Loyalty maybe? Nah. Wow these guys are good. I mean it's not like they were waiting for a guy named Patrick Roy. Remember they tried to hire him once before and actually did last year. But hey why not hire another coach for 30 games so people don't figure out our grand scheme. Off season plan executed perfectly.
