With average goaltending this is a 98-100 point team. With last year’s Markstrom this is a contender again. That’s the best you’ll get as a Flames fan in the big budget modern NHL (by this I mean a stacked team like 1989 with a bunch of HOF players on sub $1 million contracts will never happen again). Accept it or cheer for another team.
I really don’t like the “cheer for another team because you don’t like how your favorite team is being run” takes. People on here have invested their time and money into the Flames for years. They can give their honest opinions on how they feel about how the franchise is being run. They don’t have to accept the direction of the organization just because you do. They aren’t any less fans because they don’t accept the mandate that the org been following for a long time now
