This team has been nothing but average to below average and I understand why fans are frustrated. Why would people want more average? Average doesn't seem to cut it in the NHL.

Just to expand the flames have one of the worst playoff series win percentages in the NHL. They've only won .375% good for 27th in the NHL.
There is only one team that is newer than the Flames who have lost more playoff series.

Sure 11 teams have not won the cup, but 8 of those franchises didn't even exist when the Flames won last.
The Flames peers are franchises like Washington, Buffalo, Vancouver and Arizona.
