Are the Leafs tanking? -- Tanking Discussion Thread

[Ovate]

well, he's struggled to find regular playing time and has had very sheltered usage. he's done well on the pl but his skating is a bit of an issue otherwise.

if he keeps scoring he'll gain some value but i'm not sure if was anything other than a good game or two on the pp.

He's only had one multipoint game, so I don't think that he's just been lucky a couple of times.

The Grabner-Froese/Holland-Boyes line hasn't been getting particularly sheltered minutes. Boyes is 50/50 for O-zone and D-zone starts.

He hasn't found regular playing time, but that's more on Babcock than on his quality of play. There's not a lot more he could be doing with his ice time. Skating isn't great, but it's not a real issue either.

Amazing night for the tank!

Flyers, Jackets, Ducks, Sabres, Oil, Panthers, Devils, and 1/both of Flames/Yotes all get points.

It's great to be alive!!
