I seem to remember that Sutter turned this team around and it became somewhat of a destination of sorts - at least for a while. I mean, Calgary was never going to compete with the New York of course, but it improved from what I remember. After hiring Brent, suddenly that went away (wasn't he voted as the coach most players disliked playing for, or something like that?).
I wonder who from LA (or the Ducks) that Darryl covets. Who is UFA next season that played under Sutter? Maybe someone gets a look this off-season.

I completely agree, but at the same time, Tre has been good at bringing UFAs here-the results have sometimes been bad, but even guys like Brouwer, Neal, and Frolik were considered top free agents at the time. He brought in another 2 highly coveted UFAs here this offseason in Tanev and Markstrom.
As for UFAs I see Alec Martinez, Tanner Pearson, and Trevor Lewis as a few prominent former Kings who are UFA. Brandon Sutter is UFA too....
