Haha, it was so well known Hartley was a harsh task master before he was even hired in Calgary. Why is anyone shocked by these tales of hardships ?
He was brought in to create structure and get the team pointed in the right way. He did that. I still contend he should have had at least one more season to finish the job.
If not for Hartley's tenure, I think the Flames would be a full season back of their window.
