I thought I was pretty clear that it was the entire package of manufactured outrage at pure hypotheticals. But as is clear with your last statement here, you're just looking to get juvenile about it now.

Who to blame? The coaches? Sure. After that, then who? The GM? Sure. After that, then who? The underperforming vets? Wait. Isn't there someone else in a leadership role? A captain perhaps? Who's accountable for an underperforming vet? Well, surely that vet is at foremost accountable for their own lackluster production on ice. But beyond that who is accountable? What have they done to address the problem? What results are there to show their actions are effective?
You may call that hypothetical. But let me take you back to the fact that cannot be denied: the Calgary Flames are not in a playoffs spot. That's the whole point of all of this, to make the playoffs and have a shot at the Stanley Cup.
Does Giordano buy his mother flowers on Valentine's Day? I don't care. Are the Flames in the playoffs?

I don't really think there needs to be an inquiry at this point honestly. Beyond that I can only repeat: suggesting this (a young team in the middle of the pack half way through the season) somehow falls on Gio for possibly not buying in was an odd and unsubstantiated take.
