I've heard this from a few people and don't understand it:
  • Darryl drafted Backlund and loves him;
  • Darryl signed Gio and loves him;
  • Darryl has gushed about Monahan;
  • You don't think Tkachuk, Ferland, Bennett, Hathaway are Sutter types?
  • Darryl drafted Brodie, that's HIS guy;
  • Hamonic is a physical western canadian prairie boy, I'd be shocked if Darryl didn't like him;
  • Jagr would fit like a glove on Darryl's two cup winning teams;
  • Gaudreau is small, but remember, Darryl acquired Huselius, Johnny has more heart and competitive fire in his pinky than Huselius has in his 6'3 frame. I'm really not worried at all that Darryl won't like Johnny. In fact, I bet he would relish an opportunity to coach a player that dynamic, he's never coached anyone like that;

The only player I can see Darryl not liking is Dougie and if you ask me, good riddance. They can still probably get some good assets for him.

I think this is an ideal situation for Darryl.
