Most people don’t particularly care if the Flames are great or just average. Playoffs are pretty much a bonus, they’re exciting, but a lot of people that pay to go to games are going for the experience or the long haul. Even wins are a bonus for most people.

It seems weird to take any sort of passionate position about not “accepting mediocrity” and showing the owner you mean business while continuing to watch games and frequent message boards. Angry fans are still fans, and disengaging from the product entirely is the only way to get close to sending a message, not being angry but otherwise continuing as you were.

The Flames are concerned with people losing interest, and less so in the specific tone of their interest.
LOL, you sound suspiciously like the rep who sells us our seasons seats every year.
