The "no offence to Johnny he isn't quite there yet" is so comical considering where the two players were at these two times (Jarome getting traded when he was on the back of his career and the Flames weren't competing vs one of the most prolific players to hit UFA in years)

I think you over-estimate the average fan's investment in the players. In terms of fan interest (you said it would drop to zero), I think my point stands.
Games will still sell out, jerseys will still sell and Flames will not collapse.
