They didn't.

That picture begs a shop with Ward's head.

So does anyone know where the term "tank" comes from originally? I've heard it comes from Boxing or Tennis originally, but why the word tank? Does it mean like bottom of the tank? Just curious.

 

[cptjeff]

Faulk scores. What is it with Isles-Canes games anyway?

 

[A Star is Burns]

Like I said, at least we got that entertaining game

 

[Finnish Jerk Train]

Aww yiss.

Skinner makes it 4. Another leaky goal.

[A Star is Burns]

At least Berube isn't NHL caliber either.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Goal tending clinic tonight.

Now Berube lets one in that should never go in in a million years. But hey, Skinnah!

And Berube pulled.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Berube yanked

So according to this article the term came from swimming/diving. A swimming pool was called a tank, so going into a tank is taking a dive. No idea how reliable Slate is though

Goaltending is optional.

Swimming pools used to be called "tanks". So when people said the player "went into the tank", it was essentially the same as "taking a dive."

Since then, anytime you "tank" something, you're failing at something intentionally or spectacularly.
