26th, 27th, 25th are not bubble teams (especially in a 30-team league, as it was then). That was a full tear-down and rebuild. So you can't even count those years.

Your claim needs a bit of editing: ‘The Flames are always and forever mediocre because they refuse to rebuild, except for those several years when they actually did a rebuild and a couple of years when they were good as a result, but we don’t count those years because reasons.’

Doesn't sound as impressive, does it?
