Absolutely. Yet the guy didn’t have a hard time getting two NHL head coaching jobs. And some people say he was very much in demand when the Flames hired him.
Do you believe the GM that hired him last now sees the world entirely differently because I’m not so sure. Maybe the players slowly weed guys like this out because such coaches don’t have long term success anymore. But that’s not what happened with Peters. Maybe it would have eventually but we don’t know.
