You're owed one? You've won Dahlin two years ago as well as Eichel in 2015... If there's a team apart of EDM and NJ who doesn't deserve a first oa its certainly BUF

We lost Eichels year. Only won Dahlin. But you're not wrong. I think what hes saying is more we've been ****ed over by awful management that it'd be nice to get one.

You guys won with Eichel, believe me...

Eichel would've easily been at 1 in most years

Obviously, but Eichel was clearly strategic, not luck. Reinharts year was strategic and we still lost. Then Dahlin's year was just ineptitude and we got lucky somehow.

This year if we win is 100% luck. A little different that Eichel.

What are you talking about? Lol. It is all luck that is why they call it a lottery. Only other thing that comes into play is scouting.

I'm saying eichel and Reinhart can't be considered luck when we didn't win any sort of lottery. We were just awful. Dahlin is a different story. We won that year. That's all I'm saying.

Got it. Are you insinuating that EDM and NJD were lucky? That was straight rigged. They need to address how the lottery works.

I absolutely HATE the Mittelstadt trade
Don’t think we should give up on him like that just yet

I'm not anywhere close to thinking that much into it, just saying we didn't win Eichel or Reinharts year. We only won once.

Love Jack, not sure if you've watched McDavid play. We couldn't drop below 2 that year, that was what Edmonton's 4th win? Post was tongue and cheek anyways, just wanted to see how the lineup would look with Lafrenière added.

I wouldn't call adding Jake Bean giving up. Think of it as a higher end Nylander Joki trade v 2.0

Let’s just say i agree for argument’s sake
We have lots of talented young defense in our system,
and little talent coming at forward

I suppose winning Lafreniere mitigates that a bit,
but how much better does that top9 look of Mitts develops into the stud he’s projected to be

Your points are fair. I think it comes down Cozens development and if they think he is a true center and not a winger. They can't go into next year with Cozens and Mittlestadt penciled in as their C2 and C3 so assuming they add someone and Cozens looks great, that makes Casey a little expendable.
