We’re already relatively competitive and will only get better. We’re essentially at rock bottom now.
Personally I don’t think everyone should be crying.

Not sure where rock bottom lies, but I agree with what you're saying.
If you look at the last calendar year and take away the transactions because Calgary was in the thick of it, and either let rentals walk or signed them to bloated contracts you have to like where the team is.
Value in transactions in young players and picks.
A hugely successful draft.
The team did a great job in asset management in the last 15 months.
If the Hab/Fla pick swap bites them in the ass it's annoying, but not as bad as it could have been if they didn't have that terrible start last year.
