The TEAM, man, the TEAM.
The Team lost in the cup final the year before. The pieces were there, it wasn't working. The coaching change made sense.
The flames got SWEPT in the FIRST ROUND last year, and finished in the basement of the league the year before that.
It would be completely idiotic to fire Gulutzan right now.
idiotic.
Considering this is the Flames we're talking about, that might actually make it more likely, but it would still be stupid.
