This team isn't going to be that way (or shouldn't be) for a few more years so having him around might actually do more harm than good. Brining in new players, younger players, that have a new way of doing things should be met with a new coach with a fresh outlook. I don't care what Hartley has done in the past with other teams, I don't even care what he did this year so far or what he's going to do with this team for the rest of the year. His style just doesn't fit with the new NHL and if the Flames want to move forward, I just think they should get with the times and adapt

will you shut the f*** up already, you're making us look bad! Stupid past Poe969 was talking out of the wrong end when he wrote that. Had a point about younger players and new system and whatnot but completely wrong about Hartley. I thought he was more of a players coach and favoured vets to rookies. I was wrong and it's not the first time and won't be the last. Hartley is going to win the Jack Adams this year and he's already made a Bobleiver out of me.
