We've been mediocre and nothing has changed IMO we got worst this is a downgrade over Brodie and would rather brought Hamonic back. This guy can't stay healthy to save his life and with the minutes he's gonna be eating up we'll be lucky to see him in the line up for 50 games. I don't understand why they would go after him and not Barrie or even bring back Brodie, this teams problem wasn't the goaltending in the playoffs and the defence was okay. The one piece we needed to add was a top 6 winger and that should've been Hall and it's baffling to see Brad continue to beat around the bush and not address that, I like the Markstrom signing but this was a fail. We're technically two seasons removed from that embarrassing first round exit to the Avs and no changes have been made to address the scoring and taking the load off Johnny and Monny. At this rate we're gonna see Duclair signed and all their gonna do is play him on the third or fourth line and once again ruin a players career. This Tanev contract is gonna bite us in the a** in two years and we're going to end up in cap hell. But hey at least they'll make the playoffs and that's all this ownership cares about, that and cheaping out when it comes to hiring coaches.

This is a good post. I have been wondering if the Flames as a team have actually made any progress. We are already seeing our core getting older. The team is poorly built and we don't really have and elite players to build around.
We just let 2 good defensmen go and got nothing in return in the way of decent futures.
I suspect if within the next 2 years we are still spinning our wheels we will be looking at another rebuild. Will we lose more players for nothing while other teams are making trades!!
