But you're missing the point:
I find it amusingly hypocritical for posters around here to talk about anyone tanking that season when Flames management clearly tried to tank as well.
I am very happy that Burke had none of that stupidity this season, and most likely never will.
Anyway - I guess I've derailed another thread - so I'll stop now.

I think you're missing the point:
A good team (Colorado) purposely doing poorly is the definition of tanking.
A poor team (Calgary) trading away their good players to accept a multi year re-build isn't tanking. It's re-building.
There's a glaring difference between the two that seems quite obvious.
