I seem to remember some story about the coach of the penguins being forced by management to sit certain players (I think the staring goalie for one thing) on the final game of the season to ensure they finished last and got Lemieux. There was a bit of controversy I believe because the coach did not want to play to lose. I could be wrong about that.
