I have not once seen anything stated to the media that isn't already clearly obvious to everyone and their dog.
To some perhaps it stinks of desperation to get deals done or whatever, but jeezus who cares, everybody knows we're in the mix to get deals done, to rebuild, there's no freakin secret about any of it so stop whining. It's media jargon people, MEDIA!!!
Flames fans are starting to get such an inferiority complex that they're using the Oilers as a comparison time and time again...
Stop it. The moment we draft 3 top picks and still suck balls, then you can start comapring to the Oilers, but as far as I'm concerned we're still, at least for now, on a much better path than those greasy losers...

Fair enough.
But the bolded comment highlights the concern (for me at least)
The bid/ask spread on hockey trades is huge - it all comes down to which team
has to trade (or desires the trade), and they are going to be the one over-paying usually.
When playing GM-poker, I think you need to play it tight - certainly tighter than I'll-play-every-hand Feaster currently seems to be.
You have to let the game come to you.
