If they sign more bad contracts via UFA to half arse it once they clear cap room this year
They have a healthy head start on SJ , but still have one of the weakest farm systems in the league
If the Flames start this year they should plan for at least 2 more full tear down seasons before trying to start being better , not take on any contract longer then 3 years, and use cap room to help teams in the offseason to unload contracts
Get as many picks as you can , and in 3 years you can start moving forward properly
