If we win we can cut the deficit with them to 13 with 3 games in hand.
Who says I lean to the dark side?
Point, counter point, although I think you are writing tongue in cheek.
I deal with reality, and the reality is that the CBJ are out of the play-off picture. Done, dead in the water, finished, kaput, the fat lady sang, forget about it, time to move on, etc.
Quit slobbering over "games in hand", because quite frankly, the CBJ won't win all of those games, if they even win any.
I agree with neutral parties, that the CBJ need to embrace their fate and play for the draft. I don't mean tank, but what I do mean is don't rush injured players back. Give them lot's of time to heal and be ready for next season. Give young players a look. See what trades can be made at the deadline that would help the team next season. Evaluate everything.
As far as tonights game goes, I don't expect much. Yea, maybe they pull off an improbable win, but I find myself not caring at this point.
I don't feel that I am being pessimistic, but rather, realistic.
