I'll be pretty sad if Johnny leaves.

...and I'll be pretty upset if the Flames then don't kick-off a rebuilding effort. This team already wasn't talented enough (exposed in the playoffs), so without Johnny? Rebuild or stumble around in futility. Those are the two options in my eyes.
Well, we're already used to stumbling around in futility. I'd put my money there.

That does sound pessimistic, but the organization hasn't proven that mentality wrong over the years. If they can't draft a bonafide superstar, it's rare they ever trade or sign one in FA.

I'm ready to be proven wrong.
