Ik but its funny how they fired their coach after winning, not losing. Ward probably thought his job was safe after a win lmao

you’re acting like this decision was made in the last 20 minutes. He was probably fired in management’s eyes after the loss on monday and the delay was due to trying to get sutter as the replacement

Yeah but they should have done it after a loss. I doesn't really matter much but it would have made more sense.

Going to be one crazy offseason if sutter can’t get the vets on a role. Interesting choice, probably good for proximity and players coach after ward. Will be interesting run, imagine if it’s a 04 run and see Tb again in finals

Both of these are pretty ignorant or foolish takes. Sutter took the flames to the final in 04 and won two cups with the kings. Should be a household name for a hockey fan over 16. And the difference in the standings is rather negligible considering they have to play only teams in their division. Flames are a week long hot streak away from being 3rd. If they go say, 5-2 in the remaining 7 against edmonton they’d pass them fairly easily most likely, and montreal isn’t exactly unbeatable either. A coach who can actually establish some systems to follow and has any sort of tactics knowledge will help immensely, not to mention most teams get a boost under a new coach as they aim to prove that it was really the coach and not their fault.

True but edmonton was pretty good against everyone but toronto and was on a hot streak till the last 3 games. Things could change with the new coach but rn can't see them making it

I bet this decision was made a while ago.if they were going with an outside hire, that person would have to go through COVID protocol before they joined the team. Rather than go for a week or two without a head coach, just let Ward run out the clock. This firing probably would have happened even if Calgary won 12-0.

They're literally one spot out of a playoff position behind a team on downward spir and the season is half way... what makes you " can't see them making it"

Gallant or Boudreau honestly could have worked better I agree. Don't know why they brought him back as I feel his style may not work with this current style of hockey. Yes he went far in 04 but they had red hot god iginla carrying them. With the king's that team was built to win as Quick back then was God almighty and kopitar, Brown, Williams, Carter, Doughty were just amazing. Just got to wait and see I guess but will be interesting

For the most part I agree with this, I do think Sutter will be better than Wardo though. Like Glen Gulutzan was arguably better than Ward. I wonder if GMBT actually reached out to Gallant/Boudreau and they may have just declined to go to Calgary. Totally possible and not entirely unreasonable

Why would any coach want to go to Calgary? Bad culture if you’re a coach and you know that you’re one line up away from the fan base crying about every move that is made.
