Flames have shown that they can work hard all they want and still get nowhere. They need to get bigger, faster, and with more talent. Yeah, they've gotten younger and a bit faster, but the bigger and more talent will hopefully come in the next year or two. The team can work their arse off to 10th place in the Western conference all they want. That doesn't achieve anything in the short and long term goals as a franchise. Just hope the history doesn't repeat itself. Flames need big, fast, center depth as well as depth for puck moving defensemen who can shoot the puck from the point.
