The Tank is Love. All Hail the Tank!

[Index]

They will. Canucks won’t

It’s going to OT and you know it

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

If we were going to win any of these games I'm glad it was this one. F the Leafs.

Win - Win situation tonight. Win & we beat the Laffs, lose & its a W for the tank.

Anyways, alot of 'easier' opponents down the stretch. LA, Anaheim, NYR, NJ, Chicago, Edmonton, exc. Could be a repeat of last year. Not good for team tank.

 

[The Vasili Jerry]

Way to choke Ducks. Wow.

 

[Phenomenon13]

The Canucks ruining the tank and my fantasy team at the same time. Wonderful

 

[ProstheticConscience]

Not even mad tonight. Not when I'm hearing go Leafs go chants in our own f***ing barn.

f*** you, Leafs. f*** you, Leafs fans. f*** you, everything in Toronto.

 

[mossey3535]

f***ing Andersen chooses tonight to just whiff on a shot, I wasn't happy.

Is the Edler situation this year's 2016 Hamhuis debacle?

All I can say is it's a really bad sign if you want to contend for the cup and can't beat down the Canucks.

 

[ihaveyuidonttouchme]

there goes my bet

 

[Cancuks]

Edler screwing us over in more than one way this season.

Are you sure you want to derail this thread into a discussion about economics? The data don't support your claims, FYI. Being wealthy is largely the result of being born rich, rather than some sort of undefinable mastery of all things economic.

But let's get back on track. This thread is about the Tank.

Ok the business side of hockey gets in the way of my hockey fantasies too.

 

[Teflon Jim]

Oh no it just seemed like you were an expert on billionaires or something based on your comments

Oh no it just seemed like you were attempting to smooze me as a mistaken billionaire as you admitted.

 

[PatrikBerglund]

Vancouver should trade their 2022, 2023 and 2024 first round picks, for a bottom 12 team's 2019 & 2020 picks.

If it works in NHL19, why not IRL??

 

[Hemty]

Worst possible scenario. Vets score & get us the win. Bleh...

 

[Bettman Returnz]

In this case I’d rather beat the Leafs! They are one of a few teams that I can’t stand.

I can’t stand Jim Benning even more. There is no such thing as a good win this year.

You can’t stand Benning because the Canucks best the leafs? What?

 

[Bettman Returnz]

In the last 3 seasons we’ve finished 3rd, 2nd and 6th to last... all 3 of those seasons we’ve dropped spots in the draft lottery. So no sense getting upset over wins down the last stretch of season. Truth be told, lottery draft luck isn’t on our side. We could finish dead last and end up with 4th pick overall. Regardless we should be getting a real good top 10 pick this season.

I can’t stand Benning even more than I can’t stand the Leafs. Ergo, I’m not happy about the win.

That’s not how odds work.

I think it's also to minimize the number of spots that we can drop down from the lottery.

 

[Soups On]

I think it's also to minimize the number of spots that we can drop down from the lottery.

And the higher the later round picks the better.

 

[Bettman Returnz]

We won’t be dropping any further than 4-5 to last this season. And I get we can only drop 3 spots (so anything less than that is a bonus). I am just being realistic. My hopes ain’t high. You can dream and hope though. I ain’t stopping you.

My expectations are at an all-time low...

That is not how odds / math works.

 

[xtra]

Some people are just stupid:

Even if you finish dead last and drop 3 spots in the lottery to finish 4th that’s still picking higher than picking 7th why would you want to pick later?

 

[Grip it N RYP it]

Looking for a big game from Sam Gagner tonight.
