I’m not sure what the consternation is with team tank. The ship has been point in that direction for a least a year now.
My sense, and anyone can correct this if I'm mis-representing things, is that "team tank" wants to see the Flames more proactively strip the team down, by removing some of the well performing vets...both to maximize the return of those assets and so that their 1st can be a higher one, including to maximize the chances of landing McKenna this year.

I think that's basically it?
