The 2019-20 Tank Command Thread - Part 2: The Tank is back on?: 30th place | 69.8pt projection

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Yeah, but before that we won ONE playoff series in the span of a decade.

Good,unexpected runs can happen sure, but you can't rely on them. You need a consistently strong team.

Which is still better than Toronto. Feels good.

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Why have this guy when you can have a first round playoff exit?

Dude, nobody thinks we're going to the playoffs. We started well in 2017-2018, and with good players we still found our way to second last.

People are too concerned about a couple extra wins. Let's all be losing miserably instead...

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Because man those few extra wins will guarantee that we don't have the same losing culture that the Oilers had.

A few might think that. That's fine. I just hope the team doesn't. We have assets to sell at the deadline and the team needs to be ready to follow through on that, no matter how 'close' we may be to a playoff spot.

 

[Ice-Tray]

Sort of like with life itself.

You guru you

Not knocking on #9 because we all wish him the best but Bobby and Boedker were on the PP at the beginning of the season


Now it’s Brown and Pageau-Duke have been on fire so the PP looks much better

Huuuuuuuge difference

 

[Six Assets]

Detroit are unstoppable

 

[Ser Grogu]

NYR coming back from 4-0 against the Habs. You love to see it.

Not much of an accomplishment lmao.

We have 8 PP goals this season. 4 of them have been against the Rangers.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

PPs were 6-1 for the islanders and they get 0 goals. How annoying...

 

[Sens]

Sharks are one point out of a playoff spot
Eight points out of the division with a game in hand

 

[benjiv1]

While I still think Ottawa will level off, I think we are ultimately better than Detroit, LA, NJ and Minnie.

A more realistic projection of where we are going to be drafting is 5-10 and somewhere around 12-16.

I’m sure some fans will be disappointed, but we are competing while artificially being to the Cap floor. These other teams should feel bad.

I still hope we can get one of Stutzle, Perfetti, Drysdale, Rossi and players like Stranges or Foudy with the SJ pick.

Exactly this.

 

[Bileur]

The absence of the Boro-Ceci pairing is really hurting the tank.

 

[operasen]

If we move up it will be lottery driven. I think the reality is as Benjiv1 states. Rossi, Foudy, Stranges would be awesome. Askarov will be in the mix if Gustavsson falters.

If the teams spokesman says Dorian is looking to add a blueliner

this teams not going to be selling at the deadline

There is literally nothing wrong with our blueline for the type of season we're having. This should be write-off and anything else is gravy.

 

[HSF]

If the teams spokesman says Dorian is looking to add a blueliner

could be a young blue liner like fleury or risto so that we can send brannstrom down

 

[HSF]

I think the tank will reset tonight

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Columbus is pretty bad. Wouldn't surprise me if we win.

 

[God Says No]

They should be adding a blueliner in the AHL not here.

 

[HSF]

They should be adding a blueliner in the AHL not here.

perhaps want to add one here to send bran back down

 

[God Says No]

perhaps want to add one here to send bran back down

Good point. Brannstrom would help them immensely.
