Can any Canes fans give any assessment? Is he a good coach? Was the roster horrible or did he not get the most out of his bench?

Sounds like a lot of issues stem from modern coaching philosophies and using corsi religiously.He would have had better results with a more talented roster. He took a team that has no top-shelf scoring talent and no goaltending, and made them look like a viable playoff team for much of the season. The wheels fell off eventually and he was very visibly frustrated with certain players by the end. Bear in mind this happened at the same time as an ownership change and the GM getting "promoted" out of his job.
Criticism on Peters is that he forces a very Corsi/analytics friendly structure, with a lot of shooting from the outside and a lot of risks at the blue line which allow a smaller but higher-quality number of chances against. You need the right group of players to really be successful with that style.
IMO he's the best coach currently on the market.

You fail to bring up the following;
- Lack of calling a TO before the game got out of control and it always did.
- CONSTANT changing of lines.
- Speaking accountability but only holding fringe 4th liners and 3rd pairing defense men as well as a rookie accountable.
- Pulling the goalie with 3 minutes left always resulting in a loss.
- NOT swapping the goalie when 3 goals have been scored on them in the 1st resulting in a route.
- Dare I talk about his line choices in OT?
- His commercials with his family....
I think he is an OK coach but the end result was no playoffs in 4 years and the under utilization of Eric Staal where he puts up 40 goals on another team.
Good coach, didn't seem willing or able to adjust his systems to his roster to really get the most out of it that he could. I attribute that to inexperience and will likely improve as he goes along. With a bit more talent, he could have done more. Still a ***** for bailing.
