We can tie ourselves into knots and squint really hard to say this team can ‘contend’ right now, according to ownership’s sell job because they can’t stomach a season without playoff revenue.
The rebuild crowd is branded as being negative around these parts, but I see it as the opposite. Hope for something better and a fresh start, because surely what’s not working can’t continue to be the way.

I don’t think the rebuild crowd is being branded as negative, I think they’re being branded as unrealistic because the Flames have said multiple times they have no intention of rebuilding.
At a certain point it’s just a fantasy. A nice one, for sure, but just not one that’s actually possible with where we’re at.
I guess maybe the negativity comes from being negative about anything that isn’t a rebuild, which is basically all the most likely options. Which seems like it would suck.
