- our GM walked away from a contract offer...which may be one of the first times if not the first time that such a situation has been confirmed. The Flames wanted him to return.
- we lost our two best players within a couple weeks of each other last summer
Yes, winning soothes all. So what's the plan to start winning at a consistent basis for the first time in something like 30 years?

If Lindholm wants to stay, and signs an extension worth 8 * 8.5-9/aav people on CP would freak out. We're getting older! What a stupid contract! Flames have no vision!
If he gets traded or leaves it will turn negative as well. Lindy didn't want to stay, this organization sucks! No one wants to play for the Flames! Norman is the worst of all billionaires on this earth!
Some people are always looking for the negative angle and the media feeds off of that.
