Trying to turn #### into gold instead of admitting you suck is the Flames from 2008-2014.

This is my line of thinking. Hall won't fix this team, he'd be a band-aid on a broken leg at best. I think it's time for management to admit that the post-Iginla rebuild has failed, and try again at building a better team through the draft. Trade Gaudreau, Monahan, Backlund for whatever picks you can get, give Tkachuk the C, and give the young guys the opportunity to prove themselves
It was absolutely dreadful to watch the Flames from '06 to '12 trying for the quick fix over and over again. I do not want to see a repeat of that
