It is hilarious simplistic to draw conclusions from each candidate's coaching record without the benefit of interviews and analyses. This is fine for fans, but I expect an NHL GM to perform a hell of a lot more due dilignece in making his coaching hire.

Beyond that annoying self-indulgence, I find your comment interesting. You are clearly putting up an appearance of speaking from a position of greater understanding. Would you care to inform the rest of us plebs who the illuminaries are that Treliving is likely listening to? Further, would you care to explain why you believe none of these three options are names that the people Treliving does listen to are likely to have been brought up as capable candidates by same? And, can you explain why, if these are not names at least brought forward for consideration, that Treliving should even be listening to these people in the first place?
This is not my intention at all. I am only suggesting that we don't really have a good idea as to who the GM and his advisors consider to be the top candidates for the Flames head coaching job. In this vacuum of information it seems pretty presumptuous to think that Treliving's shortlist should look anything like ours.
