His mistake was a bad reaction to something that already happened, mainly because his priorities were screwed up. Assuming that was the only thing, and assuming he's rehabilitated, I'd be prepared to see a second chance.
It depends on the team, really. If Lindholm and Backlund are gone and Sutter doesn't want to retool, then maybe you may try to see if you can get a good coach with a bad history will come on board to replace the talent lost by Sutter. However, if Kadri is your best centre then I don't think that they are going to be in the playoffs anyways regardless of the coach. Perhaps Quenville isn't interested in a retool or rebuild.

Naturally, I am assuming that Lindholm and Backlund are traded for picks or prospects. I doubt that they get players of equal quality back, particularly if Treliving is not the one doing the deals. Prior to Treliving, the Flames had trouble coming out on top of trades.
