It was clear the tuning out of GG, and BT knew in Feb that year he was going to hire Peters.

Yeah, he had to ####can his first choice for being a racist who assaulted his players.
Then maybe he should've fired him in February...
i think tuning out GG is horse#### fyi.
That team was bereft of talent which is why the flames brought in a wheelbarrow worth of new forwards that offseason and miraculously improved their scoring dramatically. Blaming the coach was a very convenient way out of being afraid the team wouldn't score enough goals and then finishing 27th in goals for or whatever. Ya, probably the coach.
It's always some excuse.
Like maybe re-signing backlund to be a 32 year old 34 point pace player at five and a half million bucks wasn't a good idea. I dunno.
Gusev for a 2nd and a 3rd or Lazar and stone for a 2nd 3rd and 5th.
Anyway, it's 40+ game this season and the flames stink and it's treliving's 6th year as GM and they look like they are getting worse.
There's always some excuse for why the Flames can't be good and ultimately they are all weak.
Bennett is hitting guys in a 4-1 game though hey, what more can you ask for?
