The level of hyperbole in this thread is ridiculous. Here’s just a couple quotes from the first page of Bill Peters’ hiring:

Here comes some more wasted years1

Quote:
ya, screw interviewing other potential candidates. The guy who just ended a mediocre tenure in Carolina gets an immediate job with the Flames. Treliving better have a lot of faith in Peters, because his job is on the line with this hire.
Classic Flames hire

I would hate this hiring passionately. If he hires Peters - a coach that has nothing going for him - after all the crap we've had this season with GG, my liking of Treliving's hockey business sense would be at zero.

Seems like a play for Jack Hughes, probably need to make a few more moves to increase our odds, but this is a good start.

Expect more of the same. This organization is a mess from the top down and it doesn't look like it will get any better. It is becoming so easy to dislike this team as there is very little worth liking (bad owners/management/more useless players than good/####ty arena). We almost need a full organizational reset as we have been stuck in this rut of mediocrity for close to 3 decades minus a couple flashes

And a few from the Lindholm trade:
Quote:
If Fox is involved this is a major loss for Calgary
Edit: AND FERLAND? RIP Brad Treliving

I feel like I’m going to be sick.

Quote:
We lose this trade by a mile if it’s true

Wtf if that is the Final trade Treliving can pack his #### and hit the road.

The posts specifically calling out Treliving aged especially poorly. Maybe, just maybe we should see how this plays out on the ice before concluding it is an abject failure?
