Oh, and how about that call to put in a cold Rittich against Dallas in the playoffs?

Analyze whatever you want but it seems kinda biased to just throw out a win streak because it doesn't fit your argument. Every coach has wins because of a goalie, hot PP, whatever. Losses too.
I never said he was a good coach...not the worst ever either IMO. It seems many of the same posters who think the rosters terrible also think Ward is terrible because he was only 10 games above .500
Wards playoff run sadly enough was one of the Flames better ones in recent memory. Say what you will about the play in round but they still won it and pushed Dallas. In the infamous Rittich game you speak off the Flames allowed 7 scoring chances and got scored on 7 times.
That is on the goalies
Talbot had a .733
Rittich had a .667
What the heck is a coach supposed to do. By the way I am thrilled with Sutter, like I said the team must be good if even Ward can get them to win games...we shall see
