Nobody asked you about this coming season. I asked you about last season.

As for being second in the league in goal differential....who cares?

It's usually an indication of a pretty damn good team.

I also don't care that Gaudreau is a great even strength hockey player in the regular season.

OK, let's improve the team by making sure that it has nothing but players who suck in the regular season. I'm sure there's a trophy for that!

What I do know is that my team has had one good playoff run in the last thirty-three years. Not good enough.

Then go find another team.

The eternal optimism of fans like you is what is stopping us from achieving greater success.

Absolute BS. I don't even spend money on the team. Nothing I say or do has the slightest effect on the outcome of hockey games or the plans of team management. Nothing you say or do has an effect either, so get over yourself and cut out the magical thinking.

We should demand results from our team, not keep buying tickets, watching on tv, and spending money.

Then they will go broke and the franchise will be sold to a different city. I guess that would solve your problem nicely.

We're an eternally losing franchise and it shows. Nobody wants to play for us, and all our best players leave for US markets as soon as they realize we're a losing franchise.

Boo hoo, kid. Boo hoo. Your sense of entitlement moves me not in the slightest. Go cry to somebody who cares.
By the way, who the hell is this ‘we’ you keep talking about? The Calgary Flames are a business; the specific business they are in is called show business. They're not here to win, they're here to entertain people and make money by doing so. And you are not in that business with them.
The real question is whether you want a local NHL team or not. Apparently you only want one if you are guaranteed a winner; in which case, reality should take away your lollipop and spank you with it.
