Week 20: The Bottomline
This week does not look so good in my opinion. The Sedins are dormant, essentially everyone is invisible (save the netminders), and even the kids are getting hurt. The hockey gods are telling the Canucks to step back from the playoffs — through injuries and slumps of all sorts.
How much fuel do the Canucks have left in them? Is there enough left in the tank to really “tank”?
This week, I will be exploring everything there is to “tanking”. How can the Vancouver Canucks tank? What does tanking bring? Do the Canucks have the right environment to tank? I will do everything I can to get to the bottom of this tanking business.
But again, I will remain neutral on whether the Canucks should tank or not. For now.
What I know is that if the Canucks lose all three of the games this week, there needs to be a serious movement towards the bottom of the standings. But the NHL is a thirty-team league where anyone can win on any given night. That is why we have these outlooks and predictions.
And that is also why we would like to thank you for enjoying another weekly edition of Outlook and Predictions. Enjoy Week #20 folks, and check back regularly for the verdict on tanking.
