Had Hartley not won the Jack Adams, basically forcing Treliving (who wanted to clean house that the former GM put into deep disrepair) to keep him that next extra year, Flames could've looked a lot different from then on. Can't recall which coaches were available that offseason but thought there were a few good fits.
Anybody other than Ward at that time probably means no Sutter.
