The disconnect between the Flames Organization and it's fanbase has a lot to do things.

Some fans want a scorched earth rebuild. Where the Flames organization will not or can not entertain the idea . I don't think they can because a larger portion of their CLIENT base won't infuse their money and sell seats during a scorched earth rebuild. Note how I used the word Client in lieu of Fan. There's a divide between fans like us at CP who can see through the weeds and know the on ice product needs a total wipe and STH investors who have real money tied into this thing.

Hell, even on CP you can read STH holders talk about not re investing their money for next season based on that very notion.

No, I think collectively the hard core fan needs to understand and align their thought processing closer to the center of the organizations outlook.

Or at least acknowledge that they clearly have boundaries in which they need to operate within.

It wouldn't shock me if Conroy and company understand scorched earth would be useful and they could do it, I don't think it's in their M.O. to do so because the investing clients and the casual fan won't stick around if they did. Which is a significantly larger portion of the fanbase than us hard core fans.

Long story short, The organization cannot afford to go scorched earth and they're going to ice rosters every year that are as competitive as they can get them. Maximum effort every season.
