To me, there's nothing intense about watching teams limp into a lottery pick. I want the playoffs, I want the battle to the playoffs. That's why I watch hockey.

I enjoy watching the "reverse standings", because it's nice to have an idea where we might be picking.
From there, we can look at the prospects in that range and form our own opinions on them. I love reading about prospects regardless of how our team is performing though. I'm not only interested in the "winning" aspects of hockey, I also like to look at the individual skills of young players as they progress.
It kind of makes the season, whether it be the NHL or CHL, a bit more interesting.
