Also, since these guys aren't the official rights holders of the Calgary Flames they're more raw (obviously) with their takes then Steinberg and co. and can colour outside the lines alot more, which you would think would draw a larger audience with how bad the team is this year. I'm curious if this bad start is giving them more or less views honestly. Probably less across the board for everyone tbf.

But hardcore fans (many are here on CP) is an outlier in fandom. Being more raw and outside the teams grasp like most of the local media seems like it would be a recipe for an uptick in followers when things are bad. But the reality is the vast majority of fans just check out during a teams bad years.
