In sports fans aren’t happy with being average, they want their team to win it all.
Fans are usually optimistic about either contending for a cup, or getting high draft picks so they can become a contender when the rebuild is over.
Fans expect the flames to find themselves in the middle, either as a gatekeeper in the playoffs, or just on the outside looking in. The lack of optimism comes from feeling it will be the same next year and so on.
The ranking definitely feels right. Besides if the amount of negativity on this board is any indicator we should be all the way at the top.
