But Hartley also said him and Trevy are like partners and that Hartley did what's in the best interest of the organization, which not a lot of coaches are willing to do. If Hartley was only protecting his job, things would've been different:
1) Raymond wouldn't have made the team out of camp over Byron
2) Ortio wouldve been lost on waivers
3) Hamilton would've probably been scratched early on
4) Hiller and Backstrom wouldn't have gotten all those starts at the end
Keep in mind Hartley is not a micromanager. Gelinas is being groomed and was given fre reign of the special teams, good or bad. So when your a company man and a team player, then your less likely to be thrown under the bus.
