I am ignoring most of this because it is beside the point I am trying to make. My issue is not with the fact that the author has extremely low expectations for the Flames. My issue is with the fact that she is attempting to write a witty season preview of the Flames while clearly not knowing anything beyond the bare basics about the team heading into the new season. It seems intended to be funny, and I think it fails badly. It looks like lazy writing to me.
