We heard after the loss to Dallas that the Flames players were apparently extra disappointed to lose the series because they believed they had cost Geoff Ward the coaching job, as they really liked him. Maybe that should have been the first sign that Geoff Ward is not the right coach for this team?! Why are we giving this team a coach that makes it fun and easy for them but doesn't seem to make them better?
And I've been generally fine with Ward up until recently. I'm also fully aware given the bizarre circumstances of this season that a coaching change is extremely unlikely.
But jesus ####, Gerard Gallant and Bruce Boudreau are both looking like no-brainers at this point.

I think Ward has failed to get buy in. And I like Boudreau (not Gallant). But Boudreau isn’t an ass kicker, if that’s what you’re looking for. He’s a players coach (but maybe in a different and better way).
