Huska is the most passive coach I can remember for the Flames. Gulutzan's system looks high octane in comparison.
Savard is epically under qualified and should have been replaced 20 games ago.
Trade the UFA's, tank and try another magic beans coach when you punt Huska 20 games into next season. Its the Flames way.

McDavid and Draisaitl were both held scoreless. It isn't Huska's fault the Flames couldn't put 2 passes together.
The one thing I'll agree on is that, when they are breaking out, having the winger on the boards facing backwards is the worst play in the game. The defenseman can pinch EVERY time, because the winger has no chance of getting past them if he is facing the wrong way.
However, blaming bad execution on the coach is tiring.
