Look at this, he can talk. Not to me though.
1) Your statistical analysis is novice
2) Your economic reasoning is non-existent
3) You don't live up to the name "Courage" at all, old man
In your simple little world, you believe that swapping the lawn chairs is going to bring us better players. Sorry Casino Jack, the draft has a better success rate. That's why a "tanking" team like Philadelphia was able to leapfrog the Leafs in a short time, and not only that, but keep a steady supply of young talent. Such so, that their lineup of prospects+JVR (what do you know? 2nd overall) was able to beat a Leafs team of mostly veterans.
Continue ignoring my original response chicken. Back your nonsense up.
BTW, in case you can't count.
Carolina - 2006 Champs - Eric Staal (2nd overall, 2003) (1)
Pittsbugh -2009 Champs - Crosby, Malkin, Staal, Fleury (2)
Chicago - 2010 Champs - Kane, Towes (3)
Boston - 2011 Champs - Kessel (4)
The key distinction is that Boston bottomed out for the 2005/2006 season following the lockout to scoop up Phil Kessel. I haven't even included big market teams like Washington, Philly, LA, and Tampa.
