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

LMAOOOOO honestly as a dual allegiant fan, I'm totally okay with this.

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

YEAAAA

 

[Static]

Wow, third now with only one win separating us from number one, that is wild.

Feels like it was only a couple days when we were like six points out and closer to fifth than first.

Lol. Wasn’t sure if you were happy or not.

I've spent the whole night furious over how Vegas has been playing but at least with this result, Anaheim's tank gets just a little better.

Did you watch any of the Ducks game?

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Man this lottery fight is going down the wire … don’t think anyone had

Columbus getting a point from Boston and San Jose getting 2 points from Vegas.

Losing does wonders

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Yes sharks keep winning. We gotta stay bottom 3

I don't like losing

Definitely wasn't on my tank bingo

We’ve still got a chance to finish lower than 4th. Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

Let me go back and quote myself quoting John Belushi.

First bit. I'm incapable of watching more than one hockey game at a time. Vegas pushing 100 points was more interesting to me.

Chose wisely not to watch. Broadcast was also brutal.

I wonder if it was the same ESPN crew that called Vegas' last game. One of the rare times I've muted a game.

I won’t lie I’ve only been boxscore watching… the team is tough to watch

It was Hextall so we got to learn all about Dylan Strome and Max Comtwat.

Also okay with the shit stinker the Knights put out just because of how vital it was to the Ducks tank. That effort was a joke. Couldn't complete 2 passes in a row all night but Reimer let them have a chance.

 

[Anaheim4ever]

Way to go SJ finally starting to play better.

Don't forget Ricky McTavish

It's weird for me. Like I'm excited for Anaheim that hope isn't lost to lock in a top 4 pick (especially with the remaining schedule being mostly playoff teams) but Vegas was so offensively bad that I'm having a tough time getting over it. Like no joke up there with some of Anaheim's worst turds in the rebuild era. A bubble team like Buffalo would have ripped Vegas to shreds tonight.

No f***ing way. Did she really say that?

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

I haven’t watched the last three Ducks’ games and I feel invigorated. Watching McDavid is so much more enjoyable.

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

Sharks get a point and have passed us via tiebreaker. Will very much enjoy the meltdown over there if they get the second one.

I have not been disappointed.

 

[George Binks]

Can we lose out and end the season on a 13 game losing streak? I’m gonna stay positive or I guess negative… whatever f*** it let’s tank hard for Bedard!

 

[duckaroosky]

I think it was supposed to be "rookie" McTavish but she can't enunciate worth shit
