I think you have to realize that the old core here just isn't working. It's time for a change.

It doesn't necessarily mean we've given up on the season or the team, in fact, I think this team would actually be better off if they traded the old core and kept a few veterans around like Glencross, Hudler, Gio, and Wideman around. THose guys are still in their prime and would be keep the team competitive, but then you'd balance it out with youthful creativity and skill.

The problem up north is that they are too young and their veterans either suck (Horcoff) or are too injury prone (Hemsky, Whitney).

Everything is about balance. I think the Flames have too many veterans here and not enough young skill and enthusiasm.
