I don't get this take that some of you have. He's not doing a good job this year but he was coach of the year last year.
That doesn't seem to be the mark of a bad coach that the game has passed by. Sure his personality type may be a bit past it's due date, but not his coaching skills.
Vinny is right. He was the right coach for the players the flames had last year, and just isn't a fit for the players the team has now.
Some of the players may not be reacting well to being coached by a sarcastic, stubborn jerk. And Sutter also doesn't seem to be doing himself any favors on top of that by how he's been using the players.
