Jamie (weird name for an old adult) is way over the hill. Good for Dallas for extending that.

That's kind of a jarring tyop in the thread title. I know the guy's name is Graham, but every time I see ‘Gharam’ I think of garam masala, and wonder why an Indian spice blend would be coaching a hockey team.

Understood. No complaints, but you're making me hungry.

Now this is going to shock you but that's been his name since birth, it will be his name 10 years from now based on history.

At one of the camps at WinSport, Gully took the time to hang around after a scrimmage to sign autographs for the kids and take pictures. He talked them up, asked them about school/playing hockey- long after the other coaches and management had gathered in the conference room. I was really impressed, he's a class act.

That is really nice.

But one can also be a very nice person and also astonishingly bad at their job.

100% agree. I am not a fan of Gully as an NHL coach.

It just came naturally. I know a guy who sings that song every time he goes to karaoke, so it was right there in my mind.

Man NHL GM's never cease to amaze. Crazy hire. He's a really nice guy but doesn't command respect as an NHL head coach. What did Nill see out of his two years in Calgary that led him to this conclusion?

That's legitimately bewildering. He's flopped at every stop of his HC gigs. Being an assistant in Edmonton for 8 years does not make him HC worthy.

Flames have always been where coaches go to die. Who predicted that Gulutzan would be the one to break that streak?

Oilers had 4 chances to promote him to HC during that time, and passed. For the last two hires, they picked their AHL coach and Connor's junior coach, rather than offer it to him.
