Conroy, Tulsky, Darche, or Dubas (if he leaves)
If Ownership is insistent on keeping Sutter, Conroy is probably the most realistic choice. Has familiarity with Sutter and can work with him, but I think he will also push for more youth. He's also seen it all with this franchise for the last 20 years - hopefully he can take all of those experiences and guide the team from repeating those mistakes.
I'm not sure how appealing the role would be for the other candidates if they can't pick the coach.
