Things are getting better. Even nights where we lose games, it's not for a lack of effort. It's usually tied to mental lapses, or skillset deficiencies.

Couldn't agree more for the most part. If someone would have told me at that the Flames would be 17-13-2 at this point at the start of the season, I wouldn't have believed it.
I want them to start winning again, for sure, but as I long I keep seeing improvement (on the whole), especially with the young guys (in Calgary, Adirondack, and anywhere else Flames property plays), I think that we should be positive, and that things will be fine.
I think it goes without saying, organizationally, things are looking
much better now than the past few years.
