Sounds like a great way to find out if this Flames roster is actually any good or not. If a proven coach with a record of coaching good NHL teams to good records can't get this team to do anything, then you know the team needs a massive overhaul.

Agree. Boudreau has an insane win percentage with several different teams over a large number of years.
One of the most consistent coaches overall.
He hasn't won a cup, but he has been past the first round many times and he has won an AHL championship. His teams usually win the division.
Minnesota's roster was awful, yet he still got them to the playoffs.
Plus he's a bit of a jerk. It's what the Flames need. He has the record of success to justify his jerkiness. His teams have also developed a lot of goaltenders for whatever reason.
Of course I would be happy with Sutter, Gallant, and others.
But Boudreau makes a ton of sense.
