If Brad's still here next year and can't do some majour overhaul to this team over the Summer theres a HIGH percentage I'm done spending my time and money on this Franchise. Outside of 04 nothing worth of note has happened. I don't count the 80s because I didn't get to see that. I'll probably pull a Cali and go with Seattle (pretty local team) ONLY because I could never cheer for another Canadian team. Seattle could very well suck but it's a fresh start. Kinda dating a loser and having to move on. I could actually get to games very easy too. An hour drive and the ferry does right down town.
If the kick Brad to the curb and makes some majour changes then good.
I'm not asking for a damn dynasty but ice a an entertaining product for a couple of years at least. That hasnt happen in what 3 of the last 20 years? The fact is they never build up the cupboards with a pipe line of prospects that are good and It's hard for them to attract top FAs . It's been almost a decade after a rebuild and I just don't see how the Flames manage not to be mediocre for another ten.
They need to start with showing bad the door and I would even say Conroy. Take the whole management team out and start fresh.
