I think collectively as a fan base there is a TON of excitement that this team is actually committing to a path the majority of us dreamed of many times over. Management/ownership is touting this as a quicker retool style rebuild instead of a complete tear down but visually, and with this hold your breath Markstrom situation, it’s seemingly going to be much closer to the latter than the former.
There’s baked in skepticism for many flames fans, understandably so, but Conroy is a much different chef than we’ve been used to in the GM spot, he’s still very young and passionate about the league, an incredible scout in his own right and honestly probably loves this team more than anyone of us. Trust. Let the little golden nuggets these guys drop excite your fandom too, this is a different flavour and I’m excited by it!
