We were going to suck this year. I'm surprised that this many people are shocked.
Everyone on this forum talks about not rushing the rebuild, but it's funny to see the reactions after a game like this.

Totally agree. Everyone thinks a rebuild is one year or less. Hey, let's blow it up again, shall we? And I also think keeping Monahan up here is a waste even though he is good. It takes more than one great talent to build a team. Now, time's ticking for #23 to pick up a huge paycheck. And before you know it, he'll be just an above average centerman on a crappy Flames team several years down the road. This team needs to hit rock bottom for a rebuild people - like it or not. The Flames have not reached rock bottom if they have not picked up the #1 draft choice of the year.
