Pretty good article and it hits the point about the last 4 championship teams that the Flames don't have - size and character. The current group that played on the ice last night against the Oilers and got a shellacking has got no drive and no passion. I think the Flames is going the way of the Oilers and hoping for a quick rebuild. But the way they're doing it is totally scary because there is absolutely no size up front and they're a push-over in the back, even with size on defence. I really think they need new management in order to build up this team to be competitive again. Even though I hated Burke in the past, I think he's a good candidate to make it happen. And it won't be two to five years. It'd be about the same amount of time as everyone else or longer.
