Agree with this in the short term but it's a bit simplistic....long term, their goal is to always make decisions to satisfy the fan base. Ultimately the satisfaction of the fan base is aligned with the goal of the team and ownership which is to win.

If the team is bad year after year after year, I think they are accountable to their STH and fan base for this (ie. oilers.....can you imagine being a STH).

Bottom line we need to give flames management more time (ie. 2 years) but I would suggest that the satisfaction of the fan base and having a 'better hockey team' are more closely aligned then you think.
