I'm also not bent out of shape about not seeing our middling prospects play NHL games. Maybe one of those guys forces his way onto the roster next year, but it's not like the guys we are talking about are surefire NHLers that we are holding back. Most of them are tweeners at best.
I get people are upset at how the season has gone, but it all feels overly dramatic.

Can't we only move up a max 10 spots though? With the new rules. So picking in the top 11 still gives us a shot at 1, whereas 13 only gets us up to 3 if we win it
