People if you don't like the thread, then just stay out of it.
I voted yes but by tanking I mean positioning themselves to be competitive but not strong enough to rise out of the basement. Having a truly awful team is disheartening and demoralizing, especially over a long span. So I think they're trying to avoid that negative vortex by sailing around the top of it.
Having decent goalies, lots of hard work, and a few kids to keep the interest of the fans they're trying to do enough to keep the positivity while they rebuild. I think in their secret heart they want to finish about where they did last year.
