Yeah it is a 10 tweet thread but it needed editing.
For example, he writes:
"Even with a playoff spot dimly in their sights,
the Flames should be more concerned with ensuring their top young players get into meaningful games. But none of this is going to matter if they can't get that elite 1C and those elite wingers that win you Cups."
How can you ensure your top young players get 'meaningful' games if this team dumped all its vets as advocated earlier in the thread? They'd be well outside of the playoffs, similar to a Seattle. When was the last time Seattle played a 'meaningful' game? And if you truly want to tank a la San Jose, when was the last time their kids played a 'meaningful' game?
We're also told we can't be finishing 9th again next year. Ok, how? Dump everyone I presume. But then again if that's the case how do the players get 'meaningful' games when you're emulating the Sharks season?
It's just hard to read when the thread's internal reasoning eats itself.
The thread should just be 1 tweet that says: 'I want to watch rookies play in the NHL and I expect them to lose which will get us a first overall*.'
*1/4 of the time.
