2023 Tank Thread (Mod post Page 60)

[GunnarStahl]

Since it seems the Ducks will likely finish bottom 5 this year, I figured we should have a thread for discussing the implications of where the f***s will finish in the standings. As well as what factors could affect where they finish.

Tonight was interesting as all bottom 5 teams earned 2 points sans the Ducks and the Hawks.

Hey Folks,

Want to clear some of the air here, Tank talk is not an issue, please talk tank to your heart’s content here, totally understand how critical it is for that Future Potential Top pick. The issue is posting in the GDT, like you want the team to lose or make posts that you are angry they are winning or won the game, or bashing the team for not tanking.

The main reason is, to respect your fellow members. The GDT is about discussion of the game on a live basis and then post game discussion and opinions. A lot of fans are not rooting for the team to lose, and everyone has their views and opinions towards tanking, and may not want to discuss tanking in the GDT

If you guys have any concerns, feel free to PM me or another mod, and would be happy to explain more in detail.

Thanks!

Leo

Truly unreal. I did not expect this for a second and I still think they have a shot against Philly. Especially playing like this.

 

[AngelDuck]

It sure would be nice to officially put San Jose in the rear view mirror tonight…

 

[DuckDuckGetz]

JUST. STAY. DOWN.

 

[HanSolo]

Like y'all can try but just like don't try too hard.

 

[HanSolo]

So far super lukewarm from both teams.

 

[HunterDuck]

Oh yeah our ROW is significantly lower than San Jose's.

 

[HanSolo]

[HanSolo]

I'm hoping for a combination of the following factors applies to that game:

1. LA is still fighting for playoff seeding
2. LA gives a shit about winning a rivalry game
3. Anaheim plays like they can't wait for the season to end.

Now that I think about it I'm wondering if McTavish looking pretty meh lately has something to do with Bedard lol.

So much for that theory

 

[HunterDuck]

Mac and Bedard must have had a beef playing Fortnite or something

 

[HanSolo]

Probably wishful thinking to expect them to go 3 for 3 on consecutive powerplays.

Especially with brain dead passes like that.

Our starting D pairing is Benoit and Beaulieu.

Vs Pettersson

Yeah.

a generational player does not bring a SC lock.

No, but it quickly makes a team relevant and gives them an identity to build around.
