It's difficult to not think what Tortarella would do in charge of the Flames. The coaching staff must be aware of who the problems are in the room. Said problems would be healthy scratched, regardless of salary or tenure. Removal from special teams. Cut icetime. If there is not going to be a strong personality in the room to snap players into line, it's up to the coach.
As much as I like both Gio and Tkachuk, rallying them should be nowhere as difficult as a rift between Iggy and Reg.
