I think another team was also interested in Peters but his body of work in Carolina wasn't exactly stellar. There was a bit of a leap involved in believing he could do better than .500 with another roster. To Treliving's credit he did just that in the Flames first season but then came the issue of him really wearing thin with the players extremely quickly. Also the Hurricanes seemed to get instantly better with Brind'amour.
