End Of Season Round Table: Is It Time For Some Shakeups?

1) Will Geoff Ward be the Flames new head coach?

Maddie: Sigh. I hope not. I have to give him credit for not letting this thing go wholly off the rails after the Peters situations, but I think what we saw was that his system just didn’t really gel with this roster’s particular skillsets. This team just isn’t built to be a heavy forechecking dump and chase team, which it seemed is what he was trying to have them do. I’m hoping they find a way to keep him as an assistant coach, but with depth of the coaching pool available this offseason, I don’t know why you would run it back and not go after one of them.
