Consistently wrong, which means it's not information as much as popcorn farts.

His information has as much importance as you give it.

Does it matter if it was wrong? What do you gain?

He annoyed the hell out of me. He made plenty of mistakes. He was brutal with the media.

But some key players had terrible seasons on their own. Blaming it all on the coach is ignoring a much bigger problem.
What is the much bigger problem?

I remain exceedingly dubious, but accept that comeuppance!

But is it future telling or is it more akin to a seldon plan?

I think the Flames lack upper end talent. They lost their two best players last summer and haven't replaced that upper band.

Huberdeau is a great complimentary player (which is somewhat unfair for 115 points) and doesn't drive a line.

This was made even more so with the top ten goaltender playing top 30.

Except in context, it appears that was posted tongue in cheek and was just representative of the chatter in the thread. Not that consistent with much of your other messaging. The Flames were still alive when this was posted, so there wouldn't have been the level of certainty within the organization as you posted.

In terms of getting a lot of stuff right, I would argue Sec214 may be the most credible insider on CP right now.

Maybe...I already did win the lottery and selected Section 214 over Section 120.

I wish the goaltender had played top 30

115 points was second in the league. That’s not lacking talent. It’s failing to capitalize on it

Did you hear Huberdeau’s remarks? Seems like the style Sutter had him play was a problem for him

And Kadri was on prorated pace for 100 points. That is talent as well

Also somewhat related to the goalie, I hold a different view, and genuinely thought you would be interested in the Opportunity Analysis thread
