basically Healy can spew all the hot garbage from his mouth that he wants, because that's exactly what the Flames organization has iced as a team for the past few years

If the media had any influence whatsoever on flames management, the rebuild would have started 3 years ago. For a while now it's been said our organization lives on its own island to an extent, and no amount of ongoing criticism from Healy or anyone else will change that.
