Is it not a perfectly valid question to wonder if someone who spends most of their time on here trashing the Flames is actually a fan? What does it say about their psychology as a fan?
Sorry but if you’re gonna hate on the Flames all season I’m gonna question your fan hood.
If you have a problem with that I’d suggest it’s you that has the thin skin.

It wasn't thrashing or praising. That's hyperbole. It was objective analysis.
I have all the same concerns and all the same impressions of the two teams as bubbsy. The 2019-2020 Calgary Flames have yet to convince me they are a contender or superior to those yokels in the north. Does that make me less a fan? It sure doesn't make me a Flames hating Oiler rooter, I can assure you. And I have never gotten that impression from bubbsy's posts, either.
Any professional hockey analyst worth their salt has their favorites, whether it be teams or players, yet can still stand far enough away to evaluate objectively. I skip over the majority of posts on here because of their subjectivity (that isn't to say they don't have value). The posts that stand out and catch my attention are the ones that offer a balanced opinion.
Like it or not, the Oilers have positives and the Flames have negatives, and vice versa. You shouldn't have to worry about being labeled a hater or Oiler fan (puke) if you explore these talking points...outside of the E=NG threads.
But that's just, like, my opinion, man.
