There was, in any case, no way Hay would have lasted that long, because he was truly incompetent. People talk about coaches losing the room; Hay never had it.

That's very fair. I was pretty young at the time but I definitely remembering Hay being no good.
Also Craig Button and Doug Risebrough hold the title for worst GMs in Flames history in my book. That guy did nothing except screw up all the good Al Coates had done. Just awful, awful management.
