I want a rebuilding coach to teach the team to play a better system that whatever insanity Huska preaches in the neutral zone. It's just plain bad.
Yeah, defensively it's definitely not in the upper echelon of NHL teams. I attribute the goals against to the two goalies being positive in goals saved above expected.

Even developmentally, can you say he's been excellent when Zary and Coronato are getting shelved for PPs in overtime? Don't know what he's thinking there.

If the goalies aren't playing as well as they are most people are probably going after Huska next.

I'm not saying Huska isn't good. I just don't think the he stands out among his peers in any significant way. But he's fine for the stage the Flames are in.... he just needs to lean on his youngsters in key situations more.
