A lot of people think he should be on the hot seat. Almost all those award winning coaches get promptly fired

What exactly do those guys bring to the table on a night in, night out basis?

The Flames need more guys like Byron, not less.
To be fair, the Flames did precisely the same thing with Byron AND Raymond. Both were on waivers.

And no - the Flames don't need more marginal NHLers. They need more GOOD NHLers.

It's a lot easier to coach and play when you have zero expectations.

It's up to the coach to prepare the team between games. Hartley has not done that.

remember we lost 8 games IN A ROW last year. It just looks bad now cause it's the start of the year.

Oilers suck!

I wish Hamilton never requested to be traded. It seems as soon as players ask to come to Calgary we consider ourselves a country club and all he effort goes out the window

Way too easy to blame the coach.

The team played okay during that 8 game losing streak though. This team is a complete dumpster fire.
