Here is the thing though,
In the last season under Hartley and the first season under Gulutzan, the Flames have scored within 1 goal of each other through 49 games on the season.
1 goal extra goal is all the 'creative offense' Hartley's system was able to provide over a structured 3 zone 5 man breakout, arguably with better offensive players.
