The big difference I see is the Iginla/Kipper Flames were being lead by players all in their 30’s. The Flames had really no sub 25 talent on the roster in 2013 and the team was far overdue for a rebuild. I think we al enjoyed the first couple of Hartley years because it was the first time in a decade the team had young players to be excited about.

This current group is still to young to tear down and to do it after the pandemic is premature. It is highly likely in hindsight now may look like the best time to blow it up but in the hear and now I think they need to retool it and try and win while the hall of fame coach still wants to work.
