Is there some award to be won for signing free agents or spending to the cap with futility that I don't know about?
Everyone watching these games is thinking to themselves that this team is replacing Gaudreau with Hall away from what exactly?
Surely an 8 million dollar Taylor Hall and a 38 year old Giordano is what's going to stir the drink and bring the Flames to the promised land? It's definitely a great idea to build a team around two left wingers, right?
Maybe they need more motivational speakers for pre-game? Do some of you guys even read your own posts after you click submit?
A hard cap league is a zero sum game. You're not going to win a goddamned thing when you're paying Michael Stone 2 million dollars to fart into the same cushion for 70 games. When your big roster shakeup is putting in Rinaldo, it's a sign you're a dog#### organization that has no other option but to sign a PTO to fill out the roster.
Trusting the guy who's major accomplishments the last 3 sesaons for this organization hs been to lose trades and sign bad free agent deals to trade away Gaudreau and sign Hall?
Lord Almighty!
Whether the Flames win this series against a backup goalie or not, is anyone really in doubt on the trajectory of this group and the people running it?
