A coach with a proven winning pedigree in the NHL is what the Flames need. Nothing less.
The Flames need the right coach. That coach may have a stellar NHL record or one that appears average up to this point, and I am hesitant to discount someone outright on this purely binary metric. The facts would seem to suggest that Bill Peters is well regarded and a highly sought-after NHL coach in spite of his current record. I don't pretend to know why, but I do think it is very interesting and likely means that he is a better coach than his record thus far in Carolina.
