Eh, while I'm not on the Fire Hartley wagon (just don't see the point until we have the top-to-bottom talent) your post about 2nd round of the playoffs last years is misleading.
ES Score-Adjusted Fenwick:
2010 (Sutter): 51.5 (9th)
2011 (Sutter): 52.4 (7th)
2012 (Sutter): 46.8 (29th)
2013 (Hartley): 46.9 (24th)
2014 (Hartley): 47.1 (25th)
2015 (Hartley): 45.6 (27th)
2016 (Hartley): 47.8 (20th)
Perspective, would tell you that while Hartley made the playoffs, they didn't do it by following a playoff-worthy
process. While Sutter missed the playoffs, he did so twice by following a playoff-worthy
process. A coach's job is the process. Hartley cheated the process and made the playoffs and second round. But by cheating the process he arguably stifled the young players' development.
