Stupid comment is stupid. You'd really rather be Edmonton or Buffalo over the past 15 years? Rebuild after rebuild after rebuild? Entering into a rebuild is no guarantee of anything except further failure. Maybe, MAYBE, at some point you find critical mass in your picks and they turn into something that can MAYBE be competitive, but it is no sure thing. There are more examples of concerted rebuilds failing than succeeding. Retools have been just as successful. The Flames have some really good assets for a retool, they just need to make the right moves.
