As for penalties, how did Hartley have them play the least penalized brand of hockey in the entire league? Did the whole team just get mind wiped of their discipline? The PK is 26th, also limited in the results department.
What do you want the Flames to be if results don't matter? A feeder team?

If the team is playing poorly because of their systems, then yes fire the coach.
If the team is playing poorly because of the players then there's only so much the coach can do.
It's very difficult to tell if the system isn't working or if the players aren't performing it properly. So stop calling for someone's head when you know nothing of the circumstances.
