Pay more attention to what they do than what they say.
The guy isn't going to come out and say "we are hoping we suck a$$ and finish in the bottom 5" but then they ice a cap floor team with no number one center, two top four dmen and two unproven goalies.
There is always wild cards though, especially when it comes to young players.
