That's fn crazy.
3 hours north we have a franchise that blows chunks but won the right lottery at the right time (with several tries) and had a mayor who wanted an arena development area more than he wanted to flip the bird to pro sports.
A dozen other teams have been horrible for parts of the decade and are still no better than the team here now.
Accepting Arizona as the floor, go ahead and name the teams that are above the flames by record in the last 3 years. Go 5 if it makes you feel better.
I am not expecting a great Flames story, but 'worst run' is emotional nonsense. The Habs have been better? Ooh those Jets. Maybe it's the Canucks you are thinking of.
Or the Coilers who are your deadbeat neighbour who won the lottery and now drums around in his bitchin camaro as though the mustard stain on his wifebeater went away.
Edit: I'd add this is also the team that had everyone wear pride jerseys. They fired (at cost) Peters because he was a dick in the past. They support a million things and the leadership has proclaimed that engaging the community is a non-negotiable. Does all that scream 'worst run'?
