I get why the Leafs are and have been so bad...poor/no drafting. Why are the Oilers such a hack-job of an organization after having such great draft positions basically every year?

You guys better win the cup in the next 5-6 years.

Wait until these guys get older and demand super star money.

Dayum. I hate you guys.

Why wasn't there a camera on Howson's face? I would have loved to see the look on him as his heart shattered.

Hall-Nuge-Eberle
Paajarvi-Gagner-Yakupov
Smyth-Horcoff-Hemsky

Our third line will make more money than our top two lines combined.

By far.

Even with Tambellini's inevitable mismanagement we are going be scary good in a few years.

My initial reaction is you can't pass up the chance to draft him. Can any of Yakupov, Hemsky or Eberle play left wing?

This could spell the end of the the Blue Jackets franchise. On the bright side they'll finish last place again next year. It worked out great for them this year.

There's just nothing to say any more. Just a cherry on top of this forgettable season.

U do not pass on a Pavel bure comparative in potential... Trade others if needed or just let them all gel... Either way here come some UFAs.... That lineup to come to the oil just went up exponentially!

Pretty far reach to go from moving one slot down in the draft, to resulting in the doom of the franchise. Don't get me wrong, it blows big time, but isn't unrecoverable.
