I'm sure I'm part of the group being targeted here.
All I'll say is this. This flames team has built up a lot of negativity, with the year over year inconcistentcy, then the complete embarrassment of a performance last year.
Fan's have lived thru the full cycle of being garbage, rebuilding, and this is the absolute prime Time for the core. There aren't any bluechippers coming. The youth are getting their $ and in their primes, and our primary vets are in the last year's of their prime.
This team doesn't have a lot of blind faith at this point. It's a smart fan base that can see whether the rebuild has been successful in building a contender or if they top out as a mediocre team.
As such, there's less patience, and more cynism/skeptisicm even compared to last year.
Anyways, hopefully the flames can win the next game. This is definitely a winnable series, heck they were a few seconds away from being up 3-1 somehow.
