I know it’s not all their fault - some players don’t want to play in Calgary - but it does make it tougher to care about the team.

I'm less bothered by the drafted player percentage, but the team is built based on the demand to win now, every year, and it's really starting to show. Overpayments for free agents just to have one more kick... and it's just falling apart at this point because the team's draft capital is traded away.
Darryl's bias toward vets is going to leave this team pretty far out of any scoring race. 2 4th lines is not a good thing.
