Smite 399 Report post Posted March 10, 2015 Damn, the Oilers were officially eliminated from playoff contention, by the Red Wings. We should have #tankedit Buffalo, Edmonton and Arizona are out of reach to catch up....... But if Toronto wins out and we tank they would beat us by 3 points. #Tankfor27th 1 TheXym reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My blog. http://t.co/8ctHmWLQmr He doesn't seem to understand the concept of tanking at all lol. Of course players and coaches aren't tanking, they're fighting for jobs. Tanking comes from management. But sure Ken - that's just "creative roster management" - not a tank job lol #TankJob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,496 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) "As for preparing the Wings to play the Blue Jackets, this was Babcock's reply: "We come in here, we try to make everyone look like the '68 Montreal Canadiens," he said of the Habs team that won the 15th Stanley Cup in club history. "Doesn't matter what their record is. That's what we try to do. But they don't believe us. "The bottom line is we know we've got to get better. We aren't firing on all cylinders right now, like we were two weeks ago, so it's time to get our game back, and that's what we're going to try to do today." I think he means, "think of every opponent as the '68 Canadiens". Not "make them look like the '68 Canadiens", which admittedly, we've been doing the last couple of games.

Redwings 1926 47 Report post Posted March 29, 2015 I hope some of you jokers are eating your words now. Look I love the Red Wings, but it's posts like this that make me hate some of our fans. You know, the whole "hey let's purposely lose the whole season, so maybe land the next Crosby or Teows", as if those come around every year. I'm sick of some of you spoiled brats so ungrateful for all of the success this team has enjoyed over the last 25 years. If it bothers you that much that we're not the team everyone is talking about every year then please, just go root for the Blackhawks already. Tanking just seems like something losers, quitters, and crybabies do. The Wings are a class organization, and don't need to be rebuilt. The Red Wings have been rebuilding for the last few years, and making the playoffs while doing it!! Toronto fans would kill to have their team be in our team's situation right now. What? Is that not enough? Spoiled brats I tell ya. 6 jimmyemeryhunter, TheXym, Internet.Unknown and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had a very similar post removed by the mods a few months back and a warning point (whatever that means...) added on my profile for "calling out" a few people that call themselves fans... 3 kliq, jimmyemeryhunter and TheXym reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
