It isn't about be a nice guy. It is about what is best for the team.

I get it that Laviolette will be sought after; he is a good coach. I also think Ward is a good coach who, if not extended as HC in Calgary will get a shot as a HC somewhere else. Just my opinion, but I thought Ward would be the Flames next HC after Peters. Just didn't think it would happen so soon.

It seems I am in the minority on this one, and that is fine with me. It just has a Brent Sutter vibe where expectations were way out of whack with a coaching change that ultimately was a bit of a disaster.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
