Its a lottery. finishing last does not guarantee picking first.
Everybody wants to lose, "tank!" for what? to get more lottery balls? Sure, destroy Wolfs confidence, teach our young guys to lose, broadcast to the league that we embrace losing, that will go over well in years to come when we want a free agent.
the oilers tanked year after year and the only reason they have a sniff is because they won a lottery.
Plus, I'm not sure how many in this town will pay $150 a night to watch tanking, if we really embrace that culture it could end up being very hard to shake.
