You remember that other time about, say, 12 years ago, when we saw a different picture of an eagle on a blue background?…
So much more majestic than a Hawk, and in true bald eagle nature the Caps stole Ovechkin by winning the lottery in 2004. Rec.

Capitals Coming: for Capitals fans no more intelligent than myself
Getting Ovechkin in the lotter was a bit of luck, but at the same time, if the Caps didn’t win the lottery, they would have picked next and landed Evgeny Malkin. The Pens got a pretty nice consolation prize….
Let's go Caps!

I might be remembering history incorrectly, but I think by the standings (and lottery odds) Pittsburgh was the favorite, Chicago was the #2 seed and Washington was #3 for the 2004 draft. I don’t believe Washington was guaranteed Malkin, but did well to win and move up and take AO.
Chicago, (sorry Cam Barker) really got the brown end of that stick.
Wayne Gretzky had it wrong: 100% of the shots Gary Roberts doesn't take DO go in.

Yes, Washington was 3rd-to-last. Chicago kinda got shafted there with Barker 3rd.

Well, if Chicago gets AO or Malkin, they’re probably too sucessful to draft Kane and Toews, so I’m not spilling too many tears for them.
