Fans: We need an NHL calibre coach with a proven track record!
Management: Ok, how about a 2 time Stanley Cup winner and the subsequent reigning Jack Adams award winner?
Fans Today: Oh no, he’s a dinosaur now and the game has passed him by!
Fans: This team doesn’t have an identity!
Management: Ok, let's get a coach who will in-still a no nonsense, hard working identity.
Fans Today: Oh no, the players aren’t having fun anymore and are being tortured.
Fans: No more clubhouse atmosphere!
Management: Ok, how about a hard ass coach then?
Fans Today: Oh no, the hard ass coach is being too hard on the skaters, let's get a player’s coach again.
We’ve basically gone full circle with this endless search for a coach, it’s literally the definition of insanity. This place cried for an “elite” coach 2 years ago and they finally got their wish and now even an elite coach can make this fanbase happy. Like I’ve before, It does not matter who coaches this team, they will have their flaws and this fanbase will somehow unfairly crucify them anyway.

Such a pithy and overly simplistic argument.
If you want to fling some #### at those arguing for another coaching change, provide some real damning evidence highlighting all the wonderful things that collection of coaches have gone on to achieve since getting fired by the Flames.
That'll show us.
