Switching the coach is definitely a possible way to go, but I'm surprised fans are willing to look past the fact that perhaps this team isn't as ready to challenge as we hoped, or doesn't have the right combination of players to challenge.
I get the notion that "well its easier to fire the coach" but what happens if you bring in a guy and nothing changes?

If that's the case, then we need to fire the GM. If he misjudged the talent on the team and the talent he brought in so badly that he went into win-now mode (as evidenced by trading so many draft picks), he needs to go. I still believe that he assembled a team that should be challenging to win the division and go on a run in the playoffs, but it's hard to see that happening with this coach. Even if we do somehow sneak into the playoffs with Gulutzan, do we really expect to do any damage considering his track record of losing big games?
I think Gulutzan needs to go and Treliving should stay, but I don't see how anyone can support both of them at this point.
