It's been over for a long time. Please give the kids more ice time and stop burning out the vets.

Yes, we want them fresh for Team Canada. I can see 55/13/44, and possibly 1/91/17.

Arniel's going to run 'em ragged until they're mathematically eliminated. The tank was never fully embraced.

Good.

To which part?

It's been nice to see them put up a fight the last month or so to stay in the playoff discussion, but The Whiteout would be short-lived should they make it in, IMO.

Both parts. Playing to win and not embracing losing.

I'd take 4 playoff games and the hope it can be more over giving up and then hoping we draft someone who won't be a Moose player for the next 10 years.

agreed, but i think they've waited too long to get serious and its a looooong shot if they get in

That's fair. I'd much prefer they get in at this point, too. I'm just not optimistic about their chances against a deep and seasoned juggernaut like the Avs.

And to be clear, I don't think embracing the tank was ever an option. It just looked that way for considerable stretches of the season, and the potential of landing that high pick seemed within reach.
