Do you honestly believe anyone in the organization loves the core? Does that seem plausible to you? Or is it perhaps more plausible that this is just media manipulation, and that their actions are more reflective of their actual motives?

The denial from a good portion of this board is flabbergasting. How much more evidence do you need? Murray Edwards wants a team of recognizable names that are at least giving the perception of competing for a playoff spot. He wants that to sell tickets. Which is why this team has been the most consistently mediocre team in the NHL.
Fortunately, the Flames are bad enough this year they may not have a choice. But my goodnrss have they ever tried to keel themselves near mediocre.
