Nathan Horton's career may be in jeopardy
Seriously people, the pile-on of Five-hole is ridiculous.
His point is that because anything can happen (as we're seeing with Nathan Horton and as we almost saw with the dangerous health issues of Crosby and Kessel for instance) it is not wise to sacrifice everything (including a winning, hard working culture), aka "tanking," in order to get that "one player" to secure your future.
In short, tanking (or even just counting on high picks) is bad because it can cost you more than you get in return. That is certainly related to Horton, as he is amongst a handful of top picks who have had their careers threatened by serious medical issues.
