I will admit that this is probably as low as I've felt as a Flames fan.
The inside knowledge from a couple posters, who I think have a high degree of credibility, confirms what many of us thought to be true: that the owner was not allowing the GM operate the club as he wanted to.
Now it is perfectly reasonable that an owner would have to approve large contracts to players, but obvious there is far more at play than that.
I think we had a really good GM trying his best, but being undermined.
So I have little faith that a new GM will have much better luck.
Hard to feel optimistic right now.
This is arguably the worst run franchise in the NHL when you factor in the building fiasco.
