Has he ever made the playoffs? No.
Can he? Who knows.

There is no proof that he can do it. Only extrapolation, hand waving and hope.

If it walks like magic beans, and quacks like magic beans, it is magic beans, is it not?
Any coach coming into this situation is magic beans except for glen.
Ken Hitchcock hit all your criteria for the Stars to hire him and it worked out poorly. Treliving and his team will have there criteria for what they want in a coach and will find the candidate that is available and willing to take on the role. According to the fan the flames tried to talk to Peters before Gully was hired the first time around so Brad obviously feels like they are on the same page on how they want the team to operate.
