I meant in terms of results - hovering between bottom third of the league and average.

Nothing to do with boredom. I think some fans are eager to place all the blame for this season on the coaching so they can imagine a season next year where the Flames have a big rebound with a new coach. My takeaway from this season is the Flames core has some serious weaknesses in two-way play and stepping up in big games. I think the Flames need a re-tool not because I'm bored, but because I can't keep deluding myself that this a great roster that just needs a better coach to reach its potential.
