Vigneault's teams always seem to destroy the Flames. His Canucks days were a nightmare for the Flames a lot of the time.
From my limited knowledge, he seems like a good coach.

In the last 10 seasons: 3 President's Trophies, 2 Stanley Cup Final appearances, 9 playoff appearances (3 first round losses, 3 second round losses, 1 Conference Final loss, 2 Final losses)


I don't think he'll be unemployed for long. Get on the phone, Brad.

Only guy I might want more is Barry Trotz, if the Caps fire him. But AV would be pretty sweet...

Hes a top 5 coach in the league imo

His only fault he does have his favorites some people dont understand, in Vancouver it was aaron rome

He had a reputation as a defensive coach his first few years here but he always said if he felt the team had more talent they could be more offensive they would, which happened eventually they led the league in scoring and stayed strong defensively

I dont think GG is horrible, but if AV was flames coach this year they are in the playoffs

AV is on the top of my list. He knows how to deploy guys properly. Maybe they could bring Buchnevich along with him.
