And the Chuchrun and Debrincat trades were prime examples of trades meant to accelerate the rebuild that spectacularly backfired. Given that it happened so recently, I just can't see them making the same mistake by trading 7th OA, let alone for an aging Markstrom.

As impatient as that fanbase might be, even they would probably realize that's just making the same mistake all over again.
You just don’t know what you are talking about on this one lol. This isn’t an impatient fan thing, the Senators last made the playoffs in 2017. I’m supportive of a rebuild in Calgary but by year 7 I’m hoping the Flames are buying and not hoping for the next high pick to hit.
