Can you recall last season when the Nucks were chasing the final 16 and every game became a must win? And didn’t.
This season is slightly different. With the future lotto odds favouring the not-too-bold, the Nucks have found themselves in games - games that are must lose. And haven’t.
Different management. Different coach. Even different players and the Nucks can’t follow a simple strategy.
Do the Nucking players know what’s at stake? Sure. Do they care? Nope.
Tonight they were playing to win. Yet, in this upside down season, losing more can lead to winning so much more.
