Yes, Ward is not a top tier head coach, but it's not like the Flames had planned on hiring him mid-season either. That was a situation that was out of their control. I fully expect that there will be a proper head coach search at the end of the season.
My belief is that that search started fairly soon after Peters was fired, and it is ongoing. That one of the top-tier coaches presently on the market has not been snatched up by the Flames is most likely not for lack of interest. Rather, I suspect it has mostly to do with the fact that the coaches themselves are waiting until the off-season to consider their options. Two of them have publicly stated as much already.
