Paul MacLean a couple years ago the most obvious candidate in the last decade. Second goes to Hartley this year. Hilarious at anyone else even being considered. This team was a legitimate candidate to finish dead last. Battled injuries first half of the season and lost the league MVP the last quarter. Came back to make playoffs despite an 8 game losing streak. No other coach comes close.

They'll be renaming the trophy 'the Bob Hartley' if we win the Stanley Cup.

I'll take you up on that. Maurice and Hartley are both very deserving. I don't think its a lock for anyone.

I think he's got a very good shot as he's managed to get a team early in a rebuild to hang with the big dogs in the Western conference.

What an extraordinary effort, both physically and mentally, after the Kings made it 2-1.

What Hartley has done with the one of the most underrated and youngest teams in the league to go on top of losing a Norris candidate and their best player during the most crucial time of the season is nothing short of spectacular. There has been some great coaching story lines this year but Bob's to me, homer glasses aside, is the obvious choice for the Jack Adams.

I can appreciate that, but the Jets were pegged by many to finish in the bottom of the league and dead last in our division. We also probably had ridiculous amounts of injuries.
I think if I had to vote I'd likely vote Hartley... but by no means is it obvious I think.

He deserves it. No other coach has meant as much to their respective team, than ours. Period.

Hartley takes his team from 4th overall pick to playoffs. Improved results by 20pts Enough said.

It'd be a travesty if he didn't win it.

I said it last year after the Flames got into that brawl with the Canucks that he should've won the Jack Adams award. That move alone turned his team around even since.

Going off of the NHL.com article on the Jack Adams predictions:
Laviolette- Predators Look at that All-Star goal tending, arguably the best defensive core lead by Shea "Fricken" Weber and they've got Fillip Forsberg (Johnny Hockey)
Claude Jullien- Bruins HAHAHAHAHA NOPE! How are you supposed to win this if your team doesn't make the playoffs?? Especially with a roster like theirs!!
Bob 'Artley- Flames Predicted to be in contention for Jack McDavid and look where we are now!!!! No defiant #1 goalie, 8 game losing streak mid season, no "Super star" players off our forwards, captain/best player/all-star goes down with 20 games left.
If Bob Hartley doesn't win the Jack Adams I will burn something to the ground...

It will be highway robbery if Hartley doesn't win coach of the year. Plain and simple.

Every team suffers through injuries, although I'd agree the Jets had many significant ones. With that said, the Flames lost their best player and captain for a quarter of the season.
As stated in previous posts, no coach did more with less than Bob Hartley did. Almost every pundit said the Flames would finish bottom three, and they will end up with at least 97 points and in a playoff position for the first time in six seasons.
This is a no brainer in my albeit biased opinion...

Analytics basically prove Hartley should be coach of the year. You have a statistic that is very good at predicting a team's success, and it says the Flames should suck. But they don't. That's not luck (as some terrible statisticians have suggested), that's finding a way to win that no one else has found.
Coach of the year.

How brilliant was it for Treliving to sign Hartley to an extension on the middle of an 8 game losing streak?
Gotta wonder how much that played into the success
