Crack The Coach Code

For the last nine years, Calgary has been known as as a goalie carousel. Goalie Graveyard even. Nine starting goalies have come through town between when Miikka Kiprusoff hung up the pads and Jacob Markstrom strolled in with his. At times it had turned into a running joke the team might never solve.

Now double that time span. For the last eighteen years, the Calgary Flames have had another problem they seemingly couldn’t solve that had become a running joke no matter who kicked in the door and promised they could fix it:

Coaching.

And the team seems primed to, barring the greatest hockey miracle since Lake Placid, change their Head Coach yet again in the near future.
