I don't fault the players or coaches for any of the wins at all. I'm blaming guys like Maloney and Edwards whose message to us fans are they know better than us, and that the Flames need more Kadris, not less so the team can continue to win as much as possible with their middling talent. We don't ever want the organization to proactively trade declining players with trade value and pick high because that would mean we bottomed out. Instead, we think it's a success if the team always picks in the middle, because apparently being in the mushy middle breeds that signature consistent winning Flames culture we've seen over the past 20 years that upper management loves.
They're the ones that turned a die hard Flames fan like me into needing to cheer for losses so the Flames can be dragged kicking and screaming into a much needed rebuild.
