Is the "success" of Carolina post Peters really that damning?

They were under .500 until February and got red hot after in large part due to the play of Mrzaek (who is a significant upgrade over any goalie Peters ever had there), and a savy trade to pick up Niederreiter. Plus the added talents of Svechnikov, Hamiilton, Walmark etc.

Certainly not suggesting Peters can't be questioned I'm just not seeing the change really attributed to coaching. I'm one that doesn't believe coaching has that much of an impact, i'm just saying it's not like that Hurricanes team was the exact same and now this season they look pretty loaded with the likes of Necas/Svechnikov breaking out along with good adds in Dzingel and Huala.
