I am furious about this season but I am not excited for the summer as I do believe there will be significant change.
Ideally the best way to improve the bottom 6 is slide Backlund and Frolik down to the 3rd line. In order for that to happen Jankowski needs to take a big step forward or the Flames look to acquire a 2nd line centre like RoR.
The Flames also only have 2 left top 6 wingers in Gaudreau and Tkachuk. How will they add 2 top 6 RW? They might dip into free agency on a guy like David Perron. Perhaps they trade Brodie or Hamilton for the top line RW?
They will then probably have to dip into free agency to add some defensive depth. I believe Smith-Rittich will be fine to return with for one more year.
If they make thee moves and get a legit head coach we can get excited about the team again

I sure hope he doesn't release such an article. Given how two years ago he was telling us how it was a done deal that Boudreau was going to be the next Flames coach he's proven his judgement and knowledge of what's going on behind the scenes is no better than a fan. All he would be doing with his clickbait article at this stage is making things worse as uneducated fans reading the article may believe those players are cancers when it's based on an uneducated opinion and nothing more.
