I think the feeling is that Calgary may not support a full blown rebuild like SJ and Chicago is doing.
Calgary's "retool" may look better today that the SJ and Hawk "scorched earth" rebuild model, but those teams are actually closer to getting to contender status that Calagry. Each has a foundation of young players in place to build upon, some of whom may reach elite status. Calgary's record is propped up by older players who won't be around if Calagry ever gets to contender status.
What would happen the Calgary's support if they finished bottom of the league for 3 years?

Why just 3. It's 3 so far for those teams with little sign they are coming out of it.
