Not quite a fair comparison because of tenure, but Geoff Wards work thus far with the Flames
36-27-7 regular season
Made the playoffs - 1
Missed the playoffs - 0
Playoff rounds won - 1
Playoff rounds lost - 1
Players seem to like the guy a bunch and he seems to be very fair with them. Maybe thats the problem?
This is not an endorsement that GW is the right guy for this club at all. I will say that there is not enough information to make that determination either way but if you are going to, then Ward has much more success than Hartley in the regular season and did just as much in the post season. |
Why put so much effort in to the absurd comparison of very unlike situations
Hartley was key in the organization blowing it up and changing culture, breaking up the country club and get the team playing with accountability.
Everybody knows that these rosters and expectations are quite different
