For me, it's about the meaning of wins. Sure, a win now would be fun but it would be meaningless. By that I mean that really it doesn't help us get home ice for the playoffs or even get to the playoffs, a win now would work against our future. I want wins when wins matter and right now they don't. If we get a better player in the draft, that player will help us get wins when we need them and they matter. And people are going to say "that's what the oilers do" but they do that every year and usually by december, that's not what's happening now. Realistically, a loss tonight would benefit the team more then a win would providing they don't go out there trying to lose because that's not good for anyone.
