I would rather those guys make those mistakes and get a chance to learn from it.
Watching Lucic and Lewis plod around in the top 6 is disgusting.
The team needs a injection of some speed and youth, and teams that win cups usually have a team with homegrown talent which Lewis, Ritchie, Lucic and Rooney are not.

All true and all good points, but that ship may have already sailed.
The Flames don't have the cap space to sit those players and bring up players from the farm.
