How is Conroy “above Treliving”?

A 7-3 result against the worst team in the division who has thumped you two of three previous outings is as good a reason to fire Ward as anything.

I'd say that the quality of the post-game press conferences is going to decline but Ward's recent press conferences have been as empty and useless as Sutter's worst ones.

Conroy was on the 2004 team.
Treliving was not.
Ergo...

Overall: big improvement

Mostly I agree but I think Monahan will do fine. He works a lot harder than people think. Bennett - iffy. His drive to the net is Sutter hockey. His lazy D isn’t.
Sutter will love Tanev. He will also ride Markstrom and he may not love Rittich.

Calling Glen Gulutzan abd Geoff Ward "head coaches" is a stretch.
Bill Peters and Bob Hartley didn't/haven't worked in this league since.
In my eyes, this is the first real head coach this team has had since Bob Hartley, and Bob Hartley wasn't a very good head coach.

Bennett will have a real coach. A guy who will tell him exactly what he expects from him and how to do it.
Let’s see if he benefits

Wow, pretty stunning to say the least. I've watched many a Flames team out of position and not knowing where to be. Something that wasn't as common with his teams. Back when Johnny Flame used to post here, he was pretty adament that Iginla was a good player, but Sutter was the leader and Iginla was an extension of Sutter. This team does seem like it needs that type of Leadership in a bad way. Won't be boring.

I think he will bring Monahan back to formula. Monnys gonna love this. I'm serious.

Conroy would have a say in a vow of silence - I’m sure he was in favour of the move.
There’s no shortage of Darryl fans in that building.

Darryl Sutter his last 3 years as an NHL coach (coming after his 2 Cups) and how he ranked among coaches who coached a full season minimum:
CF%: 55.57% (1st)
FF%: 55.25% (1st)
SF%: 54.61% (1st)
SCF%: 53.79% (2nd)
HDCF%: 54.96% (4th)
xGF%: 54.45% (2nd)
CF/60: 60.44 (1st)
FF/60: 44.92 (1st)
SF/60: 30.94 (3rd)
SCF/60: 26.35 (7th)
HDCF/60: 10.47 (10th)
xGF/60: 2.31 (6th)
His last season was 2016-17. This guy still knows how to coach.
My God am I a happy man right now
