    Am actually researching that right now.  (Probably should've picked something easier.)  The 3 that immediately spring to mind have been identified already.  (There have to be more than that though.)

    As for a cup of coffee - would say Morris Titanic had a cup of coffee - 19 games.  Will look for players that played at least 80 games in their career.

    Titanic (fitting name) should be part of another trivia question.  How many 1st rounders have played at least 15 games in the NHL and not registered a single point.

    As of this post, we are sitting in the 11th draft slot (72 pts in 70 games) - 2-6-2 in the last 10.  Ottawa is in the 12 slots (75 pts in 72 games)

    Det is 10th with 71 points (71 games) - 3-7-0 in the last 10

    Stl is 9th with 70 pts (71 games) - 5-4-1 in the last 10

    Van is 8th with 69 pts (71 games) - 8-2-0 in the last 10

    Sorry, but the way this team is we are very much in the Bedard sweepstakes.

     

    Yep... I don't see us catching anyone above us in the overall standings.  5 home games left and all likely are losses.  3 of our road games are against teams below us and those are definitely not guaranteed wins with the way this team is playing.  Could very, very easily get passed by Detroit, St.Louis and Vancouver.  Quite possibly extend that to Philly and Arizona.  We may be looking at a top 6 or 7 pick.  Really sucks that we even have to talk about this but that what comes with yet another disaster of a season with this organization.

    1) won’t be so young next year 

    2) decent goaltending at least gives you a chance 

    Yes, they'll be older, but the same bad habits will linger within the current "system", whatever that may be.  That also is under the assumption that all of the other teams around us regress, which is highly unlikely.  

    Aren't many goaltenders out there that could've succeeded under this "system" and the schmucks we have on the blueline.

    We are entering sweaters thrown on ice territory if this keeps up at home.

     

    If I were there, I would.  Bought my son a Reinhart jersey a few years ago and he refuses to wear it.  Not because he's no longer on the team but because of the crest on the front.  He doesn't want to get picked on.  This f'ing franchise has killed the excitement for my kids!!
