2) What if Dallas won their series against St. Louis and gave us an excellent trade piece with the 1st rounder
3) What if Burke didn't embarrass Baertschi publicly
4) What if Burke didn't extend Stajan for 5 years
5) What if Burke didn't hold out on Cammy until the deadline and traded him earlier
6) What if Feaster waited until training camp to trade Tanguay
7) What if Iginla agreed to the Boston deal
8) What if Burke doesn't trade for Smid and keeps Brossoit
9) What if Feaster doesn't give Wideman a NMC
10) What if Riberio agrees to the trade and Flamed get Arizona's 1st

It works the other way too..
1) What is another team drafted Johnny before us?
2) What if Oilers drafted Bennett?
3) What if TJ Brodie didn't fall to us in the 4th round?
4) What if Gio stayed in Russia?
and so on. Yea we have had some bad luck recently but there has also been a lot of good and that's why I think we have a core we can build around. It's easy to get down but there are a lot of positives as well
