Kinda sucks. And even if you are CHI or COL there’s no guarantee you are getting Bedard. Chances for the last place team are what 16% max?
Everyone talks like tanking would mean Bedard is a certainty when it’s really still a pipe dream even for the bottom feeders.

What's not in their DNA? not trying to win?
you'd think injecting your group with elite talent now for a little bit of short term pain to win a boat load of games in the future would be well within their DNA make up
it's called managing a team intelligently given the circumstances
it's not just Bedard in this draft who could be elite
if they're frustrated with the amount of playoff home games lately, maybe look at building your team up from the ground the right way so you can see a lot more of them (rather than patching the shoddy wagon with duct tape year after year just hoping to catch lightning in a bottle, which is far less likely or sustainable)
