While we as Flames fans can try and be positive about Peters he does not exactly scream winning coach to a player who has his choice of where he wants to go.

I'm no "the Flames are a truly amazing franchise with a winning history" guy. Truthfully I'm fed up with this franchises garbage track record.
But you said they were in the "exact same boat" in the post I responded to. They are not. While the Flames are not lighting the world on fire, the Islanders have even been worse, which is saying something.
