Edmonton fans must be thrilled, they caused all this chaos in Calgary. Top 2 players leaving, coach & GM fired, Vezina quality goalie turned to a pylon.

But also what a house of cards it all was to collapse that easily.
It probably didn't help losing that series, and Greaser fans certainly want to believe for chirpy BoA reasons they caused this mess, but I don't think this all happened just because they lost to the Oilers. All season long there was a worry it could be the last ride. I remember even thinking going into the playoffs to not worry about the offseason and to just enjoy the ride, as there was a decent chance this was it. Just sucks that happened to be the team Flames played to end that playoff year so Greaser fans could jump to such obnoxious conclusions.
