What’s been missing that gets fixed in the bench?

A cup champ back when two line pass was a thing keeping him from strwtch pass insanity.
Young and fresh who had failed miserably in his last stop as a HC and then apprenticed under a pair of coaches who failed miserably themselves in his previous stop
a hardass whose team accomplished nothing in the four years he was there, and then went to the WCF the very next year
a career ASSISTANT coach who has no idea what he's doing as a head coach.
Hartley was the best coach of the four and he hasn't even been able to get a new job.
Gulutzan wasn't even regarded as a top up and comer coach. You look at guys like Sheldon Keefe and Jared Bednar and they were legitimate top coaching prospects. I don't even know how Gully got the job. Actually I do - because he gave a good powerpoint presentation.
Ward was literally the guy who was the runner up to Gully in Tre's own failure of a coaching search.
And Peters will never coach in the NHL again.
