Sutter’s record since coming back to the Flames in seasons where the Flames top two players were not playing for a contract and likely trying to get as far away from Sutter as possible is 40-34-11 (.535). His record including that glorious season is 90-55-22 (.604). By the end of this season that .604 will definitely be below .600.
Geoff Ward was .568
Bill Peters was .613
Sutter’s ability to win is marginally better than Ward and marginally worse than Peters. He may not be the coaching savant we need.
