1 in 16 chance to win the cup 6.25% (assuming we beat Montreal)

1 in 8 Chance for Lafreniere 12.5%

and you get 12-15 years of Lafreniere

I still think we have a very deep roster this year, but thats a massive bright side if we can't get past the Habs. No silver lining to losing in the next round

fair point... and thats just based on math. logic tells me there's something missing from this team and 6.25% would be optimistic.

also this whole year feels like an asterisk anyway..

I tend to agree... however a part of me wants to take into account that Lafrienere (theoretically) would allow us to contend for cups for the next 10 years... at bare minimum would maximize the sid geno era...

Only if the gm doesn’t pull anymore jj’s out of his hat.

Everyone bashing Sheary right now have always bashed Sheary. They would have bashed Sheary regardless of if he’s playing like he is now, had buried that penalty shot, or had three goals in the series so far. People just hate the guy.

Not true at all. He will never get 3 goals in a series or in an entire playoffs (yeah, I know, he got 4 once, but it's been 2 in 37 playoff games since). Again, he has played well for what he is, but he is not top 6. At least with Guentzel, we know he's easily capable. With Sheary, not capable. The Sheary defenders seem to take it personally. It's nothing against Sheary personally - he just doesn't belong there. I know there aren't a lot of options, but I would much rather go with Rust 1RW and Horny 2RW.
