He knows how the oilers function so it was a strategic hire but i wont be surprised if the stars are worse.

He was so bad here. I doubt he learned a whole lot up in the McShow.

He wasn't bad here, the team was. Let's see how the Stars do.

He has a solid knowledge of the game and tactics but he hasn't shown that he can be the head coach of a playoff team. I question if he can do wonders with any group based on his history. Maybe he learned from his past mistakes and has made adjustments... wasn't the lack of adjustments also the knock on him?

Anyway, I think he may have been the best assistant coach Edmonton had over the past 10-20 years. Maybe ever. Is he a good head coach? Hopefully for Dallas' sake he is.

Dark day for CP when people be defending Glue Gun. I hate that guy’s style. It was a soggy moldy wet blanket on my enjoyment of hockey.

Does Nill want that style with his roster? I guess we’ll soon find out if GG has anything else in his toolbox. I hope CC can get some pick from Dallas before GG detonates their season.

Unsure how people think Huska has accomplished more as a coach than Gulutzan. I mean, I don't really like either, but a Gulutzan made the playoffs his first year with the Flames and had Brian Elliot in net...I'd say that's as good as what Huska did last year.

Well that roster had Johnny Gaudreau, Sean Monahan, Dougie Hamilton, Matthe Tkachuk, Mark Giordano, TJ Brodie and others. Much better team than today.
And Elliott was good in the regular season.
He melted down in the playoffs.

(I also don't think Gulutzan was nearly as bad as some think he was).

It’s sad, much like lamenting over losing tweeter players to waivers, we are reduced to whataboutism regarding Gulutzan versus Huska.

We deserve a higher quality of disappointment!

Some people think he was a demonic baby eater, I agree that he was not that bad.

He was a very ####ty Flames head coach though.

So the answer is Huska?

I’m confused.
