Wining is hard. Very very hard.
Treliving has a cost controlled core that isn't getting it done. He now has to decide what % of that is a missing piece (maybe goaltending), what % is coaching in the last two years, and what % is the need to change the core, alter the chemistry, or shift strengths on the roster from one area to another.
Choosing a route that is different than joe hockey fan doesn't mean the management group or ownership are happy with mediocrity. It just means they have a differing view that you.

Nothing about making it to the NHL is easy for sure. But winning is the job. Even the Coyotes have won more playoff games than this franchise in the last 10 years. I think it’s fair to evaluate an organization’s performance against their peers and these Flames and the folks making the decisions on hockey operations are faring much worse than their competition.
Wonder if there’s a chance we get another Brian Burke incoming. Personally I have little remaining confidence in the folks calling the shots right now to be able to successfully change course.
