It was a fun piece of fan fiction that's for sure.
People are upset about the season, that's fine. People are upset about the non-rebuild, that's also fine, I wanted one too. But a lot of you are delusional when it comes to the concept of ownership of this team. This franchise barely makes money. There are a bunch of teams in the NHL and in wider sports that would kill to have an ownership group that spends to the cap every year. Maybe none of you have noticed, but there's not exactly a line of billionaires out the door wanting to own a team playing in the oldest ####tiest arena in the NHL, in one of the smallest markets in the NHL. Complaining about butter costing extra? Get real man, welcome to entertainment industry. You're paying two dollars for butter at the movie theatre too, wait until you find out what the margins are on food and drink at literally any restaurant. I guess we can make a deal, the Flames will sell you butter at cost but then the salary of the team is at the league floor and you'll be praying for a 90 point season where we had a sniff of the playoffs.
