After a 7-3 win over the Ottawa Senators, the Calgary Flames announced they had not only relieved head coach Geoff Ward from his duties but that they had hired Darryl Sutter as the team's new bench boss. Sutter previously coached the Flames from 2002 to 2006, in which he left behind some "unfinished business" as the team went to the Stanley Cups Finals in 2004, but left empty-handed. Sutter later went on to win 2 Stanley Cups as head coach of the LA Kings in 2012 and 2014. His coaching career now extends to four different decades, beginning in the 1990s and continued through the 2000s and the 2010s, and he is now taking a stab at coaching in the 2020s.
In this episode, we discuss Sutter's coaching style, the surprising news of his hire, and what it means for the Flames' season and beyond.
