Are Darryl Sutter's hiring practices breeding mediocrity?

The Calgary Flames have been nothing but average for the past five seasons. They're led by Darryl Sutter, who himself has been nothing but average since 2005.

Goons are leaking goals year in and year out, yet NHL GM's can't help but throw multi-year deals at them.

Darryl Sutter fired Mike Keenan over poor team defense. He should have fired Miikka Kiprusoff.
