But we're seen a good chunk of the season now, and the Flames have hardly progressed at all. I think it's pretty clear that Gulutzan was not the best choice for coach.
It's annoying how Boudreau, the winningest % coach of all time, was available. Treliving was slow, because he wanted to follow his huge multitude of processes. Minnesota was decisive, and managed to snag him quickly. What does Treliving do? He ends up hiring a processed-based coach. And it's been a flop.
Gulutzan is probably great at interviews. However, he's evidently not good at coaching. He hasn't really succeeded at any level.

Wish guys would get over Boudreau. Facts are he was not coming here. He has stated he's only coaching for 2 more years, and didn't even take the offer in Ottawa near his grandchildren. He chose the best opportunity available to win now before he retires.
Flames also don't want their coach retiring in 2 years when we may be in the middle of being competitive.
