Miracle run? The Flames were a top team for years after that when Darryl was in charge.
They also got worse once Darryl stopped coaching which was the one season after 2004. He was only coach for 2.5 years. First year, he inherited a mess half way through and didn't have time to get them into the playoffs. Next season, the "miracle run", the season after that, he coached them to a 628 winning percentage and they lost in the first round. Then he stopped coaching.
We only had him as coach for 2.5 years and had a record of 106 wins - 73 loss record and winning 3 of 5 playoff rounds.
