I wanted the tank for a number of years, and that's what we have.

The Weegar deal was shocking to me, but without the Kadri deal, it made less sense.

We currently sit 31st, but there is a number of teams right around us.

I get you can't lose them all, but that really needs to be the goal. I get that players will always try very hard (at least the Flame players will), but losing right now will benefit the team more long term.

I don't think they can catch the Canucks, but we can out tank the rest.
