gotta kept the faith.
the weird thing is, last year when calgary was playing well, the hockey was pretty decent... i mean not LGV level of fun, but i enjoyed watching iirc...
the season just turned into a smoking wreck and i think there is some recency bias in effect here...
like i said earlier, if Peters is the choice, then come Monday, we'll just have to wait and see how he does when the season starts, as i don't think one can judge him before he coaches a game here.
i think BT will try making a few moves to shake things up... the comment of relying on too few pieces really stood out to me... Flames need to replenish the forward ranks as they really couldn't finish in spite of the team playing pretty well especially early in games and late into the season
as far as i know peters wasn't an option last year as he was still under contract and only came free this year due to the coach's option clause he had in the contract... sacking a coach one year into a 3 year contract is a bad look unless the guy you hire is on the level of Mike Babcock or Quenville...
