But unlike years past I actually watched every game of this losing streak, simply to watch the Johnny Hockey show. And I'll probably watch every game next year to see if Bennett can do the same. I love the youth movement on this team and do have some hope for the future because of it, but until management jettisons the dead weight I don't think the playoffs as a realistic goal
To me "tanked", or tanking, means intentionally throwing the game. I think you are using it incorrectly.
