Obviously.
My point is that you are talking about 3 different teams. Yes there are some core players who carried over, and I acknowledge that there is plenty of reason to be concerned, but I don't think you can compare results from 2015 to 2019 and draw any meaningful conclusions about what the 2020 Flames should be.
There is an argument that circulates here about the Flames being consistently mediocre. Results seem to support it, but if it is taken at face value it suggests that the franchise itself is flawed. What do you do about that? Fold it? Re-locate?
Or hire competent people in management and keep building and working towards next year.
This year's playoff loss is still raw, but the team had a good year. They need to (and will) build on that rather than tear it down.
