I get Francis' role in all of this. It doesn't bother me. Maybe because I'm a pessimist too.

The Flames might be underachieving a little bit, but they are not in the same class as those teams. I think our fan base really overrates the players and skill on this team. They're ok, can look good in stretches, but not even remotely close to elite, new coach or not. It would be great if they were, but they're not.
I don’t think our fan base has gotten a fair shake in assessing the players on our team because they’ve been weighed down year after year after year by a coaching staff that is sub-NHL in quality.

Why do we even need to dangle anyone in expansion?

Is it so Seattle won’t even think about taking Gio?

They're in trouble if even one of those three doesn't show up, never mind 2 or 3. And that doesn't take in account the rest of the team.

This team simply doesn't have the skill to overcome a bunch of the players going through the motions.

How many do they have to dangle again? I forget.

We've won the west with this core and a mediocre-at-best coach and sub-par goaltending.

We are certainly underachieving.

Is Stajan doing radio or being groomed for colour?

Why was he in the press box with a headset?

Nice pass by Monahan but Gaudreau checked at the least second.
