Can't remember which podcast talked about this recently, think it was 32 Thoughts, but they brought up how non marquee teams need to really step up their game to compete with more desirable markets like NYC, Vegas, etc. The Flames have historically done that by being a classy organization, great city to raise a family, etc. Now, with the oldest arena in the league, pandemic border shutdown, losing your 2 stars after a 1st round win, followed by an awful year under Sutter, no wonder there's players who want out.
