Bad examples, like was discussed a couple pages ago you have teams that rebuild and then do what it necessary to take that step to contenders, and then you have mismanaged/financial issue teams.

Including Ottawa and Buffalo as a warning sign to the Flames that you can rebuild and still suck a decade later isn't relevant, imo. Two organizations that went through ownership/financial issues and wouldn't spend anywhere near the cap when they should have been taking the next step.

Remember Melnyk? Fans wanted to revolt against him because he wouldn't allow the GM to spend money and make their team better. And they STILL made the conference finals in 2017 despite that.
