The year Peters coached for Treliving in the WC he was already committed in Carolina. It seems obvious that the reason no one was interviewed to replace Gulutzan is because 1) Treliving gad already interviewed a large pool of candidates only two years prior, and 2) he was set on hiring Peters as soon as he became available.

Sure he had a good season, but he was soundly outcoached in the playoffs vs Colorado.

It was his first ever head coaching appearance in the playoffs. Had Peters's history been different I am pretty confident that he—like nearly every other first time playoff appearing head coach—would have performed much better on his next go around.
