Darryl Sutter has always been known as an incredible human being, friend, family man, and father to a terrific son outside of hockey.
Darryl Sutter the hockey player and 5-year Captain from his early till late 20s who was an absolute Playoff performer was always known as the hardest worker who expected the most outta himself and his teammates.
Darryl Sutter the hockey coach was a hall-of-fame monster behind the bench, walked away from a contract extension to focus on his son, came back only when it made sense for his family and his son first, then him, was way ahead of the analytics game, brought two terrible unsuccessful franchises to either the brink or Stanley Cup glory numerous times, but was a little bit stubborn and too mean to some folks, so his history gets a little bit tainted to a somewhat kinda funny degree.
