In my view coaches get too much of the blame and too much of the credit.
It's on the players, and more narrowly, on the best players.
How many chances do these guys get?
Are you willing to burn a season to preserve the tenure of a coach who has never won anything ? If this was Brent Sutter or Darryl or Hartley or even Keenan that would be one thing.

But this is bill Peters we're talking about here.

What if those players didn't like those coaches because those coaches were bad?
