Exactly.
Chicago, Columbus, Anaheim, Montreal, Utah, these are teams who are likely looking to start picking themselves up off the mat. Seattle just dolled out $93M. They’re not rebuilding. Neither is NJ, Ottawa, Buffalo or Detroit. Hard also for Philadelphia to rebuild with Torts having any say.
SJ might have another year or two at the bottom but they’re likely a year or two ahead of the Flames. They’re probably flat lining while the Flames are still on an intentional downward trajectory.
Basically, it’s the Flames and SJ.
