Sutter's cup wins were more recent than Ward's.
Flames are playing 2011 hockey now anyways.
I don't put much into the Carcillo comments, the guy is a problem himself and other players have come out and confirmed that.
2004 Flames alumni have never said anything bad about Darryl. That's good enough for me.
This talk about the game changing and passing Darryl by is irrelevant. If you are smart, you adapt, like Darryl does. The key thing that Darryl brings is leadership. The x's and o's are over rated. Both Ward and Gulultzan are "x's and o's" guys; it means nothing if you can't lead the players. This team needs a leader. Someone to calm them down when they face adversity. Someone to deflect pressure away from them. Someone to motivate them properly. Someone to bring this group together. These are the things that Darryl excels at and is exactly what this team needs.
