Who wants to talk about that?
And no one is saying what you can and can't do, but don't be surprised if people that don't want to worry about the 90s after a Chicago loss push back.
Especially if said person has had literally nothing to say after say a every game in a 5 game win streak.

Yeah, this is pretty much where I'm at. It's fun at times to joke about the past and how it informs our perspectives now (ie me being cautious about Wolf because Flames and hot goalie prospects) but the fact of the matter is there have been so many eras of this them that really what happen in 1996, 2006, and 2023 really doesn't have THAT much (or any) bearing for me.
The only constants are the fan, and in the Flames case mostly ownership. Which sure you can have a conversation there about the way they do business. But that's another vector of analysis imo.
