Official Tank Thread

[Lafleurs Guy]

Far too early to throw the towel in on Marty or this team, atleast for this season. Let's just see how it plays out.

Well said.

I want a franchise 1C. Keep tanking until you get it.

For what it’s worth: Hage leads all rookies, is top ten in league scoring and has 8 goals and 16 points in 11 games.

So you're concerned about what you deem apparent lack of growth and demand accountabilty, but you also want them to suck so they can tank and draft higher.

You seem conflicted.

There's 32 clubs in the league, that definition is large enough to make Nick one of them.

We're doing this thing again where we're sucking in the wrong year.

How deep is the draft, or #1 overall pick this year? Isn't 2026 the year with the prodigy?

They say that every draft. The year we finished last was suppose to be great draft headed by Shane Wright.

It really, really burns watching this garbage team play and watching what Michkov is doing.

I fully understand that rebuilds are not fun and we are deep in the midst of one, but I still have frustration to vent.

It's no fault of Reinbacher, HuGo drafted him, but he's going to need to perform at some level to meet expectations. It's such a bad f***ing pick in hindsight at this moment. I REALLY hope he proves me and everyone else doubting his pick wrong.

Nobody thought it was a great draft, and especially not from Jan 2022 onward. Wright had stagnated and there was no clear number 2 at that time. By the time June rolled around everybody was downright negative about likelihood of the draft producing even one PPG player.

Habs have been sucking for 4 years now...

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

I might be done watching for the year , somebody let me know when Slaf wakes up because I ain't watching this team for 60 minutes just for Hutson.

But don't worry , I'll be cheering for losses with every ounce of my body I won't let the boys down

Can i have what you are smoking? That draft was known as notoriously bad, Wright was the only one that was seen as great potential, until question marks started to appear.

4 years bottom 5...
I was responding to someone complaining about tanking in the wrong draft year again.

and were validated.

 

[BeliveauFan4ever]

Just a thought, but Hage ‘has a shot’ at being a No. 1 C.

A shot.

Not all No. 1s were Top 10 picks.

Not really. Hockey is team sport. It's totally plausible to see growth and progression in 1-2 individuals while the team as a whole sucks.

I started the season rooting for wins and upon realization that it would be one of those years, am of the opinion that if you're going to suck, might as well suck hard.

Well... you don't have to ask them twice.

Although they called up Wah-Wah so the suckage is over now?

Mistake imo for his development. Let him dominate in Laval.

Don't worry. We'll be in for 1OA in 2026 too.
