The talk around here should be can't wait to make the playoffs, not can't wait to draft Mcdavid.
Cheer for 30th if we're 3/4 through the season and things haven't gone as planned, until then, go Flames go.

At this point in the rebuild Flames fans should definitely be open to looking at next years draft and get excited about the idea of drafting a guy being labelled as a generational talent. It may not be the most diehard approach but realistically speaking, this team is more likely to draft McDavid than make the playoffs.
No one should feel guilty for trying to find the positives in being the fan of a team that is in the bottom half of a stacked conference. This is going to be a tough season and looking to the draft will help take the sting out of the losses.
Heck, even of we do not win the draft lotto we are likely to get a fantastic player.
