You went from ripping Treliving to claiming he was back to an elite level when he signed Markstrom and are back to hating now. Your emotions go heavy from one spectrum to the next rather quickly.
While this Flames core has not got it done in the playoffs but they have got there more often than the have missed. I am firmly of the belief that a legit coach is the number 1 thing this team needs and I am full on giving Tkachuk the C and Gio taking a backseat as he slides down the depth chart.
Tkachuk hasn’t done anything in the NHL playoffs but this guy scored an overtime winner to win the Memorial Cup.
Look at what Ottawa is going through and I am not convinced that is a better path for Calgary to take

I agree, and I would like to reiterate what I said in the Trade thread-we have a good enough roster on paper. Our team has star players, just like other teams-Gaudreau is a former 99pt player. Lindholm and Tkachuk are star players. Markstrom was one of the best goalies in the league for the last few years. Our D is in the top third of the league, at least-most of the teams in our division would trade their D for ours. It's coaching and execution that are the main problems right now. You give this roster to an elite coach, and watch it turn right around.
