Not when they hired GG. Sutter was employed by LA.
Not when they hired Peters, Tre wanted him since the World's and waited for Carolina to let him go.
So last off season would be the only time. So Sutter said no, but changed his mind a couple months later when the team was in the tank? He was so eager to coach the Flames but somehow said no in the off season only to change his mind when the Flames got themselves in a hole? Treliving always knew Sutter was the guy for this team but somehow he hired Bill Peters without talking to Sutter?
Makes absolute 0 sense.

Didn’t Sutter delay his arrival the first time around so he could go to a rodeo in Las Vegas? Also, I could be wrong, but didn’t Sutter retire from coaching? Maybe part of it was he didn’t know he wanted to come back. Not that far of a reach after all.
Of course we are all just speculating. Bottom line, and the only thing that matters, is Darryl Sutter is now the coach. So the long held argument that Treliving is terrible at hiring coaches can be put to rest.
