Probably. But we're the Calgary Flames, and the goal is always to make the playoffs, regardless of whether or not that makes any sense.
It's why it was so imperative they take the gamble on Eichel. That would've given them a direction.
They're not going to get better when Gaudreau, Lindholm, Tkachuk and Mangiapane cost them $35-$38M instead of $21M
