There's also different types of fans. We all say we want to see the team win a Stanley Cup, but realistically most of the fanbase is happy with an entertaining story to watch each season. Where the Flames are i actually think the fans are more interesting these days.
I think all fans want to see the team win a Stanley Cup. I think most fans derive enjoyment/happiness outside of achieving that one goal. I don’t see that as a “but” as they’re not mutually exclusive, unless you’re one of the fewer (albeit louder) fans that solely derives joy from the pinnacle of success. But it’s such a rare, difficult feat that those fans are ultimately just too hard to please to consider much.
