Deja Vu.
In 1998, the first son of a Sutter Brother, Brian's son Shaun, was drafted by the NHL's Calgary Flames. signed to an over-fat contract too.
nepotism sucks. Not impressed.
[caveat; other than that I appreciate Darryl Sutter greatly)
oops - I just noticed Table 5's comment.

Richie Regehr has really panned out in the AHL as far as I'm concerned. Even if he did sign it to please Robin.
Of course I am hoping that the first Euro we sign for Omaha is Jozef Straka (brother of Martin) who we still have the rights to after drafting all those years ago

I can't see the Flames signing Richie Regher just to please Robyn. That would be the dumbest hockey decision ever. And if that was the case, whoever's bright idea that was should be fired [/b][/quote]
I didn't mean to imply that Sutter was using Nepotism. I was conceding his point that "hey if he did use Nepotism, it worked out Ok for us", I can't read minds and tell us what Sutter was thinking when he signed Richie, but I don't think he signed him because of Nepotism either. (I think he likes Bloodlines to be quite honest as seen with some of his moves - Harvey, Nilson, Regehr).
The Josef Straka comment was a little Humor. However I would like to see Josef play his game in NA because he scores at the Same click Martin does over in the Czech league - not to mention if his game resembles Martin's in some way I would love to have him on the Flames.
