I grant a lot of leeway for how things turn out if I can see the plan when the decision is made. Hockey is a tough sport to build because of the chemistry and unity required.
But when you don't like what's happening at the top it's not a good feeling.
Bad today and maybe no way out of it.

It's hard for me to overlook:
- Johnny Gaudreau walks away from Calgary
- Matthew Tkachuk informs Calgary he won't re-sign
- Mikael Backlund indicates he's unlikely to re-sign
- Elias Lindholm when asked if he'd re-sign "I have one year left, that's all I'll say"
- Brad Treliving walks away
It's hard to think things are going well for the Calgary Flames when THAT many high performing/quality individuals walk away from the organization.
Treliving walking away just makes me think things are in a bad spot, and that (pessimistically) the organization isn't self-aware enough to begin to correct them.
