Almost all rebuilds aren't planned. Teams put themselves in that situation for various reasons. Terrible management, money issues, sustained success that comes to an end. Whatever the reason, some when they get there embrace it and stay there are build through the draft. Others try to fix it quickly, Flames need to be patient
