I think if Darryl was the coach in 2009-10 the Flames would have been one of the top teams and wouldn't have collapsed mid-season. Maybe Darryl would have been too preoccupied to gut the team with terrible trades too.
I actually think he would have made better trades. Darryl's trades were very good for a long time, but the more years removed from that as head coach, the less able he was to read the pulse of the team, and see what was needed or missing. I do think that if he took over after Keenan, things would have looked a lot different for the Flames.
