If Peters is hired here, and we do well, then thank god, but if he doesn't? How does Brad justify another experiment for a coaching hire again?
He doesn't. If the next coach fails in the short term then Treliving will probably lose his job.

...I just don't see it as a time to gamble on a hire. He needs to get this one right. Peters is a gamble, and not just in the sense that any coaching hire is a gamble, because yes, they are. He's more of a gamble because he just hasn't shown he can do it here in the same amount of seasons Gulatzan has had.

So, why has Peters not experienced much success in his NHL coaching career? Do you know?
