Can the existing team be better with a different coaching staff? I am confident the answer is yes.

Are the existing players good enough to win a championship? There is no evidence to support that they are. I am of the opinion the answer is a strong hell no.

I think some of the anger directed towards GG should be aimed at management for trading so many draft picks for bottom of the roster players which has compromised this teams ability to acquire more top end talent. Meanwhile it seems to be accepted the bottom of the roster is awful.

I also don’t mind if management wants to see how the team looks with a new coach before making major moves. Treliving said he wants to build from the goalie out. Maybe he shouldn’t let this seasons abysmal failure alter his approach.
What is this narrative that you're spinning that the Flames traded so many picks for the bottom of the roster? The only player in the bottom 6 or bottom pairing that they traded picks for is Lazar. And the 2017 2nd round pick they traded for him would not be impacting the NHL teams roster this season at all, and even in a best case scenario for that pick, it wouldn't be impacting the NHL roster for a few years yet.
