Is painting a dystopian future for the Flames being considered "being realistic" now?
No one wants to be here, everyone will leave. Team is forever doomed to suck because they wont do it this way or that way or my way.
It's not a good season. Especially coming off a nice lightning in a bottle regular season last year. It really makes things worse than they are.
Reality is the parity in this league is so close that you can in fact o e year be the best and then moss the playoffs the next
It's the nature of this cap era.
Few teams go full scorched earth rebuild anymore.
I think depending on how this season ends ( still half a season to watch unfold), we will see some form of cut into the core. How deep depends on the final results of the year
It's been a weird year. Starting with the offseason where the team just wanted one more roll of the dice with pretty much everyone back. It hasnt gone to well.
I still say you keep drafting. Dont trade picks. Build a stronger base to build on. Worst case scenario is you have too many player assets.
Anywho. It's pretty glum no doubt, watching this team this year. But projecting the future as dystopian as some of you are making it out to be. Easy to be consumed by negativity.
