Despite the positivity that surrounds the youth movement here it is difficult to avoid the fact that we finished 27th this season.
It's nice that you cheer for the Flames sometimes, but we're all entitled to our biases & opinions about certain teams. I hate the Leafs. I don't know why. It doesn't matter; they could be the greatest sports franchise in the world (HA!!) and I would still dislike them. Don't take it personally!

lol I enjoy the honesty. I just hate the habs, sens, canucks, and oilers enough to like the flames. Finishing 27 is a good thing, lots of talent this year even though there is no clear #1 Mackinnon type guy. I live here in Halifax and watched him, Drouin, and Ehlers a lot and anyone grabbing Ehlers (not saying 4th overall, but if flames got another pick somehow) will be happy. Hes much more physical then people think, and his size is his only real downfall.
You have to look at organizations like LA, who were #### for so long drafting high and making trades. They did not completely tank like the Oilers, but they were top 10 so many times and built a core around it. 2 year before their cup they finished 26th remember. Its not always as bad as it seems
