Edmonton imploding early is the worst case scenario as a Flames fan though.
- They are again in the running for a top 5 pick
- It's likely they clean house with coaches, management, etc and you run the risk they hire someone who knows what they are doing.
They need to be mediocre, barely miss the playoffs, and keep all the personnel status quo.
It's hilariously unbeleivable that we have this conversation every year too. I remember thinking along the same lines back in what, 2006? 2007? and every year since. Is someone actively sabotaging that franchise from the inside out? It's hard to believe that they can continue to be THAT incompetent......and yet here we are, where the new oil is the same as the old oil.
It's fascinating.
