I had the opposite reaction to when both guys were hired.
When the Flames hired Brent I thought they stole him from NJ and he was the missing piece since Darryl was coach. When the Flames hired Peters I was disappointed they went after a guys with little success over the more accomplished Vingnault or D.Sutter
Their first years were opposites in terms of the Flames going on an epic losing streak and ultimately missing the playoffs for the first time in 5 years. Peters got the team their first division banner in 13 years.
Brent coached an aging group and took a team with PTO Brendan Morrison as 1C to 94pts. Peters seemed to have completely lost the room in year 2 and had them so unprepared for the playoffs they got blitzed by the Avs who were 19pts below them in the standings.
I voted Brent
