IMO, Gulutzan is condemning himself here.

And I'll take it in the other direction....

He is basically saying that he thinks the players need to relax and not get too emotional. But look at Hamilton. Dougie is trying to be as relaxed as possible - and it is making him look like he has no passion.

Hockey is a game that needs to be (and is best) played with emotion. But the Flames completely lack it right now. And IMO, that is all about his coaching style.
This team needs an 8hr film session watching the 2004 Flames to learn what playing with passion is, followed by Sutter walking in the room as the new coach.
