If Gulutzen is a good NHL coach, then we will know it by the end of the season. Your opinion as to what is best for this team is only that: an opinion, and not an especially relevant one at that. The Flames GM hired a coach that fit his criteria for what this team needs at this juncture. Given his own experience and credentials you will never convince me after 16 games that you have a better handle on what this team needs than he does.
My point stands: young coaches often struggle in the early-going, and it is far too soon to make conclusive judgments about Gulutzen here in mid-November.
