I will admit it's not like he's been handed much to work with (i've hated the Elliott signing since day 1 last year), but each and every one of our goalies at the NHL seems to have regressed under his watch. It's time for him to go, and he'll have trouble getting another goaltending coaching gig at the NHL level.

Ortio had his best AHL season with Sigalet and his best NHL season under Sigalet.
Ramo also had his best NHL season under Sigalet.
Johnson's season was lower than last, but much better than the season before.
Hiller had his best season since 2010-11 under Sigalet.
Actually looking at it, I'm not sure that Sigalet isn't the reason these guys are doing as well as they are, instead of completely flopping. The fact that he got good performances out of Ramo, Ortio, and Hiller, all of whom were nobodies and has-beens before and are now out of the league, is impressive. The fact that he couldn't stretch those good performances out hardly seems like his fault.
