Default The Future for Jim Playfair

http://www.abbotsfordtimes.com/sport...854/story.html

Quote:
For instance, head coach Jim Playfair's contract is up at the end of the season, which could make these next four games - beginning tonight against Grand Rapids - his last behind the bench of the Heat.
It could. That doesn't mean it is.



Quote:
Calgary Flames interim general manager Jay Feaster, who, oddly enough is living in Playfair's house in Calgary, could decide that the farm team needs a new direction. He could also choose to stick with Playfair.
Will that be the case though if this team doesn't scrape into the Calder Cup playoffs? It seems a little hasty to can someone with a half decent winning percentage achieved in the face of more than 600 man games lost to injury over two seasons and the ECHL as the main source for spare parts, if that's the road Feaster decides to travel.


Reading this article I began to wonder what Feaster has planned for Playfair. As someone that only gets to watch the Heat games on CBC, and is quite removed from the market my impression is that Playfair has done a good job with the team and helping to implement a system that has made them competitive.

I would like for Playfair to stay on with the Heat, What do you think of his future, and would you like to have him re-signed?
