As sad as this is for a Flames fan and the reason I came to this board, I actually avoid the Fire on Ice sub-forum all together.
The team is pretty terrible right now and even when we're winning there are armchair GMs in there who think they know more than actual GMs/players/hockey professionals because they watch some Sportsnet or read Calgary Sun articles. They don't know anything about the actual team dynamics, the business of pro-sports and have never played hockey at a significant level but feel their opinion is just as valid as the pros. The knee-jerk, reactionary, sky-is-falling posts when we lose is frustrating as well. Though blowing up the team is probably a worthwhile conversation right now.
