"Be patient" is about as exhausting as a response as possible. Mostly everyone is BEING patient, but when your team gets shutout 6 times in a month, perhaps it's time to make a move. Whether it be a trade, someone getting called up for their shot, SOMETHING, it's still time to start doing it.

Be patient, of course. But don't sit around and be ok with your team tanking, putting in a half assed effort, and getting shutout 6 times.

Even the shutouts wouldn't be THAT bad if they were exciting games, but god, have you seen games this boring since Hartley took over? The rebuild is time to be patient as your team is going to be outgunned by almost every team out there, but a rebuild is not an excuse to be lackadaisical about the game of hockey.
So why did you call me a troll then yesterday when I suggested that the Flames use some of their stockpiled picks and prospects to bring in a current top 6 player?

People here think it's stupid to trade your prospects, but what about Tim Erixon, he didn't turn out so great now did he?
