The same is true with sucking: at what point are the Oilers not just sucking/underachieving, and when does it become: they are just no good?
I think it's absolutely an identity. The Flames have been playing above their heads, but only in terms of skill. Put the mentality of a Lance Bouma or Paul Byron inside the head of every Edmonton Oiler, you'd very quickly have a terrifying group of forwards.
