I'm not sure I do. But it is food for debate.
This is one of the things that annoys me the most about Gulutzan. He has no capability to get the team to move past a bad break. This is a huge part of being a head coach, and there is a reason not many people are considered for the job. Not many people have that kind of skill on top of all the other necessary skills to be a head coach.

When my kid gets all flustered and frustrated, I talk her off the ledge, and get her re-focused. Parents do it with kids. Coaches do it with players. Gulutzan lacks that ability. When the Flames get gut punched, they play winded for the rest of the game.
