Players are going to play hard, regardless of who is in the lineup, you'd think. I'd like to see the org shift to giving the young guys an opportunity and playing them big minutes, vs. starting your star goalie 3 of the last 4 games, giving Gio and Johnny 20+ minutes of ice, their is a difference between outright tanking and giving minutes to what you hope is the future.
And before anybody says we need our core to put up points to increase value, the padded stats these guys have accumulated amount to very little. We aren't the only people who know our cores tendency to disappear in crunch time and the decline in overall production.

Its not like they went from 1 overall to 11 over these last 4 games
Its a couple spots in a crapshoot of a draft. Canucks have played Demko twice.
