It's not the anger from winning. It's the anger from having watched this team do the same thing every season over and over and never get good enough to go anywhere.
I'm tired of losing the games that matter just to win the ones that don't.
I'm tired of "lunchbucket" hockey where we have to rely on outworking other teams, because we don't have enough skill to win any other way.
If nothing changes, nothing changes.
What's so wrong about wanting to try drafing as high as we possibly can, instead of the ol' tried-and-true, ride-the-vets, bring-your-workboots, every-game-matters, f***-the-draft aproach we take every year at this time when we've been eliminated?
(and before JRando goes off on me... "every year" is meant as a metaphor for "it feels like this happens every year, because it has happened enough times to feel that way" ... "every year" is not being used as a scientifically-sound, exact form of measurment of literally every single year's worth of events since the dawn of time... nobody needs a list of every single season that doesn't match every single word I've used. I'm making a point, not giving a dissertation.)
