20-21 Season Tank Thread (MOD WARNING IN OP)

[I am toxic]

Only one right way to go and that's down.

Buckle up Canucks nation Jim Benning will be the Canucks GM for this coming draft and might even last until the start of the season.

We will do the standard Canuck thing and keep all our assets that could fetch picks until it is too late finishing out of lottery contention. There will be plenty of moral victories along the way playing 4th line slugs instead of youth in an effort to "stay competitive".

At the end of season Aquaman will send out a tweet "something, something covid" and "unusual year" and "still building with our young core".

If you don't think this is possible you have not been a fan for very long.

Truly and honestly hope I am wrong but fear this nightmare is not over anytime soon.

 

[Fatass]

Come on Tank. Get into gear and start blasting your way to a top five pick!

 

[Fatass]

Need to play Holtby more!

Always fun bringing the Leafs down from their pedestal atleast

If the Nucks go on a run and narrowly miss the playoffs that will be such a knee to the groin.

boooo

Demko is going to singlehandedly drop us 5 spots at the draft. Honestly though I don't mind , how hard is it find a true #1 goaltender in this league ? Leafs dream of having someone like Demko.

I still think we're getting a top 10 pick, we should pick up a great prospect nonetheless.

In other words, FA and JB are shadow members of team tank.

Ugh, two straight wins is ass. At least it's against the Leafs, that ought to shut them up for a while.

 

[Javaman]

Fantasy scenario tonight:

Leafs curb stomp the Canucks in regulation.

Calgary and Montreal win in overtime or shootout.

Bieksa puts up a pic of Gillis on his shelf.

Gord Miller uploads a tear-filled "Leave Benning alone!" video to TikTok.

Help me Gord Miller. You're my only hope.

You suck leafs, can't even win a game against the canucks.

 

[Raistlin]

Okay. Back on team tank after the leafs leave town.

 

[mouz135]

This f***ing team, man. They’re the kings of garbage time hockey.

Yep. Jim Benning and John Weisbrod get at least 2 more years if that's the case probably, no matter what. If the team springs back and makes the playoffs one of those two years, I see them here for 4 or 5 years more. Maybe even longer.

This tank is so key. Need to start getting drilled again, because casuals will see two wins against the eb0l Leafs and be quiet about management for a while. That can't happen. The pressure needs to stay high.

 

[Javaman]

Two wins against the best team in the division and the Canucks rise all the way from 6th in division to (checks notes)... 6th in the division.

Took a couple of hits, but I think the tank is still operational.

 

[supercanuck]

Toffoli is coming in hot. On a 3 game goal street. 15 goals on the season with 8 vs Canucks. Looking forward to a couple of big games from him.

I'm gonna be in the shop for a while, DND.

 

[Javaman]

Season's half over. Everything is still crappy.

I predict Canucks will now move on to the "worsening of the draft position" phase of the tank.

 

[vanuck]

Guess we have to start kissing Benning's feet now right folks.

 

[Hyzer]

Guess we have to start kissing Benning's feet now right folks.

Bet this will give FA the greenlight for Jimbo to go all in at the deadline.

 

[PuckMunchkin]

How...

I dont even.

This will never end.
