Well you are saying the bolded and I don't agree at all. I get that this is the time of year for optimism but after the deadline the Flames had a.381 Win% (courtesy of Jay Random) and I don't see any meaningful offseason additions that are going to change that especially with arguably the shakiest goaltending situation in the league. I think Flames fans should really brace themselves for the worst here as it's far more likely than the playoffs and nothing makes a season harder to endure than expectations that are simply unattainable. If they exceed expectations then it's just an added bonus and the season will be much easier to take. FanIn80 has the right approach to this upcoming season.
