They are just so much fun to cheer against, and they make it so easy. 4 1st overall picks in 6(?) years, including McGenerational and they are tied for dead last! We lose our two best players in one season, our new”superstar “ is playing so poorly he’s being benched -and yet, here we are ahead of the Coilers in the standings. How sweet it is.

I actually think a part of both franchises failures over the past 15 years is in large part due to the incompetence of the other
If either franchise was run well it would force the other to reevaluate .
“At least we’re not Edmonton” is a statement I see all the time.
Culturally the Flames as a team - top to bottom - need to start aiming a lot higher then being “better then Edmonton “
