Calgary is by far the softest sports market in Canada. Flames have been one of the least successful NHL organizations over the past 30 years and you would never know that by the media vibe and to be fair I like the Calgary media but since Dowbiggin and occasionally Francis the local media is rarely critical of the Flames. There's a fine line between overly critical such as the Vancouver and Toronto markets and the Ned Flanders style Calgary market coverage and don't get me wrong I much prefer Calgary media to Vancouver or Toronto it would be nice for some of the local guys to start asking hard questions every once in a while.
