I would say in the world of what have you done for me lately, I need to give Conroy and the Flames a lot of credit for moving the rebuild significantly in the right direction in the past month. It basically removed some of the nerves that were made tense due to some of the media hits from Maloney. After a 2-9-2 October they battled back to .500 when the New Year rolled in and in a season where that was still in the mix for a playoff spot.
Since:
- 4-9-2 in the new year bottom 5
- Andersson traded for good value
- Gridin, Brzustewicz, Parekh all on the roster
- Kadri and Coleman trades seem likely
- talks of Weegar and other vets being available for trade.
This looks to be a true blow it up season as the rebuild has potential to shift to a 8-9 for me.
