Have I ever said anything to the contrary? Flames management are the ones who need to perform the cranialrectalectomy.

If the strategy is trash no matter how it is executed, I Think it's faire game.

If you support mediocrity with your dollar then you're complicit to it. You may just be there to have fun and not care if they win or lose, but you're still supporting this subpar product.

I've been patient. A lot of Flames fans have been patient. 30+ years now of this ####. It's getting old.

Only silver lining I see now is that Conroy is going to get such terrible middle of the road returns for his pending UFAs that the Flames will be hurled to the bottom of the standings and then they won't be able to continue this "we're still competitive" nonsense. Sadly all those assets that could have help kick start the rebuild will be gone and Conroy will have to bootstrap it. Fortunately for him he'll be shown the door before having to actually do real hockey management.
