Sure it does but if you are going to be bad may as well get a reward for it unlike the Young Guns that were never quite bad enough to get top 5 picks and wallowed in mediocrity for almost a decade until Darryl Sutter stepped into the picture. A winning culture comes from winning. Right now the Flames have a head coach with a track record of mediocrity and a team that hasn't won for a couple of seasons. There's no magic switch here as winning is going to come in the form of a better roster and better coaching which are two things that can't be addressed until the offseason.
