I am personally not ready to accept this reality. Rolling over and dying with 30 games to play does not sit well with me.

Sending the message to the players that it's OK to lose because we're still young, learning, and rebuilding can be a dangerous formula that can ingrain a losing mentality into the young players minds.

Granted, the Flames have sucked for many years, but purposefully sucking they have not done.
