Well it looks slightly better if you include the 85/86 year as that was the first time we went to the SC finals, losing to Montreal 4 to 1.
I would not put most of the blame of the poor teams in the 90's on Flames management. That is when the Canadian dollar tanked and we lost or were basically forced to trade away most of our SC assets. We simply could not compete with such a low Canadian dollar.
