Then tell me what accountability do you propose for his failure to address the goaltending?
Or are you suggesting that Hartley could have done better with Hiller and Ramo last season?
If the Flames had even NHL average goaltending this year does Hartley still get fired?

He had two NHL-caliber goaltenders and they both ended up not working out (largely in part to the usage imo). I have no doubt that Treliving was doing what he could to try to address the situation - it's just not very good dealing from a position of weakness, where teams know Calgary needs significant help.
I'd rather not have a knee-jerk overpay for an average goaltender in the middle of the season.
