After Hartley was fired 1 year removed from a Jack Adams, I don’t think too many coaches wanted to take a dive into the Flames if they had other opportunities. The team was supposed to be in a rebuild but the bar for results was unreasonably high after the Flames overachieving the year before.

WOW, what a pool of poo!
