Poor ole Jack Burton all alone in the Pro Tank Thread with his incoherent ramblings and his sad little fight in trying to remain relevant. Just sit back and enjoy watching his continued demise to insanity is all I can suggest. Nothing needs to be said there, he’s doing himself in. Just revel in it

Just saying. Many fans of other teams have also noted the problems of which we speak.

Bleach Clean ain’t going down without a fight. Very heroic. He’s like that old man Harry Randall Truman who refused to move off St Helen’s after many warnings it was gonna blow.

If he stays negative long enough, he'll be proven right.
At some point Benning and Green will be fired.
It might be after a year or a decade of playoffs and a cup, or not.
But it will happen and then he'll have his justification to finally say,"See, I told you so!"
If the cognitive dissonance is too great for him to admit he is stupid and wrong, at least he has this to fall back on.

Still not a fan of him. Someone like Gallant could push this team to a new level. And I hate that he’s sitting out there unemployed taunting me.

The young core is just hitting new levels and I don’t think that’s necessarily a credit to Green’s system - it’s just they’re simply getting better.
You aren’t one of the one year window gang are you? I can’t fathom why anyone would think that when this team is driven by kids. They will probably lose a good player this summer to cap issues but I don’t see all the doom and gloom.
Don't understand how a team has a one year window when the core is so young. The division will probably be as shitty as it is this year, for the next few years. I don't see any team, except for the Canucks, getting much better.

Green will be fired at some point. Benning will retire. ;)

Bleach Clean definitely wins the Harry Randall Truman award with Jack Burton and 50 Sheas of Grey as the runner ups. I’d add Melvin, Y2K and MS but they can’t face the music.

Hey Mickey can you link a photo of Harry Randall Truman sitting lakeside at his lodge that is now 100 ft buried in volcanic fallout

Arizona is a team on the rise. They have Hayton and Soderstrom in the wings. Edmonton ain’t going anywhere. Same for Calgary

Meh, while true...meh. Arizona just is never a team that is going to scare me much. Hall hasn't exactly made them any scarier IMO and he'll be gone this offseason most likely.

Oilers - don't see much improvement from them
Flames - they'll probably be as good as they are now for the next while
Arizona - meh, they could be the biggest threat but if they are, the Canucks chances of owning the PAC look amazing
SJ - think they still have a few decent years left, but not too worried about them
Anaheim - sucks, will take another while before they are a threat if at all
Vegas - probably the only team I'm worried about for the next while. They're built to win now.
LA - sucks

As long as Arizona walks away from taylor hall in free agency, I agree.

We're taking away some peoples baby - they've had that thread since like 2014. Hard to accept change when you've been stuck in your ways for 6 years.
