If the Flames were boring and winning, no one would bat an eyelash. That's been proven in the past. It's all about winning.
I think the team has better players now than when Hartley was coach, and a couple more lovable players now, but they're still boring in comparison. The Hartley-coached group weren't a great team, but they were exciting and that was fun. The Sutter coached group weren't always great, but they were tough and that was fun. GGs group is not great, and they are mechanical and that is boring.

Hopefully with a new coach they can be both better at hockey and more entertaining. I think there's a pretty good chance that could happen.
