Every insider take on the situation I’ve heard says Treliving wanted to hire Darryl but Darryl wasn’t interested and that’s when they hired Ward.

Going from memory, but in one of his early press conferences, Darryl talked about only being interested in coaching a team that met some specific criteria and one of which was having a #1 goalie. That’s one of the biggest things that changed with the Flames between Darryl supposedly turning the Flames down and then agreeing to join months later.
