Why is your imperative to defend any coach at all costs?

Whoa that post is over a year old.
I think last year (when I posted that) it certainly was crap in crap out.
This year - tougher to say.
Elliott is an odd guy. Has great numbers but has never been able to be a full time #1. And I think we see some of the reasons why.
Ill-timed goals and inconsistency.
At this point should the Flames consider a different goalie coach? Probably. It has simply been a problem for too long.
But I also think they need to simply resign themselves to paying the required price for a true #1.
