He shoves McGrattan out there and lines him up against Sedin with the game on the line in the 3rd period. Are you kidding me?! I think minor league coaches would have more sense then that. Hartley has also made a few head scratching moves before in the past. So what are your thoughts? Is he the right coach for this team? I personally don't see him as a Brian Burke rebuilding type of guy but I would love to get some other opinions.

Reaching is reaching. There are a number of areas in which the Flames were out classed last night, coaching wasn't one of them. In fact the Flames out performed the Nucks in a lot of areas that the coach actually has influence, such as preparedness to start the game.
The Flames are out classed in skill and experience in every single position by the Nucks, yet still took them to OT and the only reason they didn't win was because of two UNFORCED mental errors by two vets. How are you blaming that on the coach?
