I also notice that when the Flames have played well from the start “they were ready to play”. When they don’t it was Ward’s fault (or Peters or GGs).

I'm sure he has an explanation for every decision he makes.
The issue is the Flames are trying to contend, and can't afford to have a coach learning on the job. This isn't a rebuilding team where the coaching mistakes don't matter. Every mistake is rightfully analyzed as the Flames have outwardly stated their goal is to try to win now.
They could have even brought in an experienced head coach to be associate to Ward and help him along. It's been done before, but alas it costs money and right or wrong there is a perception the Flames are not willing to spend big on coaching.
