I agree even if Johnny walks and Chucky asks out I would be surprised if they went full rebuild. They could do a hockey deal for Chucky and try and sign Forsberg. I believe they would do that before going full rebuild.
I think people see what McDavid just did to us and see Bedard as the next one and we would all love to have him. I just don’t see a realistic path to getting him but I truly think that is why there is a cry to rebuild. Bedard may be the next generational talent who can turn a franchise around.
Just like the cup though only 1 team gets him and the Flames are not positioned to be in the running without massive unrealistic cuts to the organization
