The fact he got 9th or 10th place finishes should be proof that he got a heck of a lot more out of this team than was actually there. The Flames were 8 games above .500 last year, that would be 3 games above right now if they had maintained that pace this year, they are currently 3 games under. I said he made about a 10 point difference over an entire year and I was wrong, he probably made about a 15-20 point difference.

He doesn't have an NHL job anymore, so it really doesn't matter. I doubt he gets another one for awhile anyway.
Sutter didn't help the team get anywhere, i'm glad another coaching hire by Darryl isn't still around.
You're destined to win the bet as well, but I will argue with you all day about what benefits Sutter actually offered the Flames. He's not an NHL coach for a reason.
How about you give Hartley 246 games before we start a comparison of their skillsets? All Hartley would have to do is make the playoffs once in the next 2.5 seasons to top Brent's accomplishments in Calgary.
