Nolan went on to an NHL coaching job with the New York Islanders, along with assistant coach Danny Flynn. He was replaced by another coach with an NHL resume in John Torchetti. Torchetti led a young team to a 39-25-4-2 record before losing to the Halifax Mooseheads four games to three in the first round of the playoffs. Torchetti moved on to accept a post as associate coach with the Chicago Blackhawks. The Wildcats brought Flynn back as their new head coach and director of hockey operations for 2007–08. Flynn traded away top veterans Phil Mangan, Matt Marquardt and Murdock MacLellan at the Christmas trading period and guided the team to a 21-34-5-10 record. The team set a new franchise mark for offensive futility, scoring just 191 goals. Ralph Diamond took over the captaincy after Mangan's departure, and was honoured as the QMJHL and Canadian Hockey League Humanitarian of the Year for his extensive work in the community. In the 2008–09 season, the Wildcats set two QMJHL records. They beat the record for most games straight with at least one point at the start of a season. They also set the record for most consecutive road wins at the start of a season. They finished the season with the second highest points total in franchise history with 102. On March 15, 2009, goaltender Nicola Riopel set a regular season record with a goals against average of 2.01., beating the previous record of 2.09 set 1997–98 by Patrick Couture. The 2008–09 team also established a new league record of 149 goals allowed in one season. The previous record was held in 2003–04 by the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles (164).
