Or is it the message and approach that's important?

It's not just about hiring the best coach necessarily, but the best coach for this team.
Don't forget that Peters was also behind the same bench as some of the best coaches in the world of the last World Cup winner. His inclusion in that group of NHL luminaries stands out to me as perhaps his best accomplishment.

I can't say if he is what this team needs, but I will say that Bill Peters has won a hell of a lot more than any of the current Flames players.
