I don't need to convince you nor do I feel like trying, I just don't believe they are this bad.
- Pat1993

Ok I wasn't trying to suggest this is your job...more making a point that beyond a hope and a prayer there isn't anything to indicate they aren't THIS bad. There is no evidence, none, that what we've seen isn't what this team is

3 wins away from a Stanley cup.

You can claim what you want, the man's plan came pretty damn close to working.

Now if he should have doubled down on that core, is another story but it's not like every team has cap space available to take our vets away in 1 month time either.

They would not have made the playoffs last year if it was not for the covid-alignment.

But people knew this team was not as good as last year's team.

And last year's team would have struggled to make the playoffs this year.

So yeah, they are better than they have shown, but they are not so much better to get into the playoffs. While I am surprised at how bad they have been, I am more surprised that people did not see them as a bottom tier team to begin with.

- Mashadar



well, to be fair, since when have you not considered them a bottom tier team..?

I nearly won the lottery, I was a few numbers off, therefore playing the lottery was a smart move, you can claim what you want

You're talking about a hypothetical conclusion to a hypothetical scenario.

I'm talking about what actually happened.

poop look up the comments section here from the last month of the regular season last year. Pick a day it'll be the same. I think people are forgetting how bad it was because of the playoffs...playoffs they likely miss if not fof Covid murdering the Nucks

most had them as a playoff bubble team. that's not far off from third tier. i think we all had similar expectations. but i don't care what anyone says, no one expected this. this doesn't even make sense.

I'm using flawed logic to point out flawed logic. It's exaggerating the comparison to make a point

Process over results. Better? Good results from bad process doesn't justify the process

There's nothing flawed about my logic.

Bergevin built a team.

That team made it to the SCF and was 3 wins away from winning it all.

Those are all facts. Wheter that fits into your narrative or not.

If you think this team, as it is currently build, has a chance to repeat that, then good on you.

Hope this season is not too frustrating for you.
