It's amazing that this is so difficult for some to understand.
You realize that we are located in a bottom 5 market in the NHL right?

Guiding a team to 2nd overall within 5 years of taking over for a scorched earth rebuild shouldn’t result in a firing 25 games into the next season. Give your head a shake.

Posters complain that we can’t sign Tavares, or Panarin must be living in a bubble and not realize that Calgary is far from desirable for most players. We live in a small market but it is still a fishbowl for the players. Bad weather, a ton of travel, and the worst building in the league.

It is laughable to punt the architect who gave the fans their best season in 30 years after a poor start to the next year where they are still very much in the mix to make the playoffs.

Any fan with half a brain could see this team was going to struggle to make a ton of moves this summer due to their best player needing a new contract and it is unlikely they were going to move a core piece after the season they had.
