Because in the last 5 years, it seems to have dramatically changed.
Each of Chicago SJ and Anaheim purposely tanked, each trying to outdo the other. Their point total demonstrated that.
Will it continue? I don't know. But I think many teams are of the mindset that if they are going to rebuild, tanking is the way to go.
