Reading the interviews around his firing from LA, he wasn't too happy with the way things played out, and apparently there was attempts by some in management/ownership to get rid of him a couple year earlier.
When Darryl joined the Flames, he mentioned the 04 Cup run, so this is a man with a long memory that will hold a grudge.
LA has trended down since the firing. This is absolutely a statement game for Darryl and he'll have the boys fired up. To really stick it to the ownership and management of LA, in his first game against them as coach of his new team, to show how far ahead they are than the Kings.
7-1 Flames.
