We all know why, because as coaches go so tend to GMs, but thats not necessarily the case here.
Honestly, I dont have a problem with analyzing things, but much like the jury is out on Gulutzan due to advanced stats that get analyzed over and over again sometimes you just have to make a call.

You make so many subjective claims in there as if they are facts...
coach has totally failed
GM is twiddling his thumbs
advanced stats get over analzyed
None of those are givens or proven to be true.
If Gulutzan goes ... and I've said over and over that I think he should given his team's in game collapse rate, so I'm not defending him at this point ... it will be under whatever analysis or timing or procedure the Flames have set up.
Could be on the availability of who they want to hire.
He could have already been fired, but they haven't released it.
The request could be in to ownership to jettison a coach and have to pay his salary.
Maybe he's asked Gulutzan if he wants to stay as an assistant and he's mulling it over (stretch).
But to assume the man is just pacing and shaking in fear of making a decision is pretty weak in my opinion.
