As a lifelong Flames fan, this ownership group does not have winning a cup as a primary focus at all. I would like that to change and if a rival were to win in order for that to change, then that's ok??? I am not cheering for them to win or anything but if they do and it changes things for us, fine. Same thing with Vancouver I guess too.

These billionaires only know how to compete like athletes and that is wanting what the other person doesn't have or can't get. If the other side (EDM) stays pathetic, what is the incentive for us to change our way of thinking? This works vice versa.
The Flames ownership wants to win a cup they just think they can do it differently than most winners by pulling a Hail Mary Blues win. Just get in and anything can happen etc.
Edmonton also isn’t a model of franchise success to follow lol. If they didn’t win the McDavid lottery they’d have three 1st overalls and nothing to show. Edmonton will forever and always be no good.
