Pretty awesome. Another Sutter to coach the Flames down the road so he can finish his Dad’s business

Congrats to him
Hopefully he can take the best parts of Darryl's coaching style and make it more sustainable and player-friendly

Interesting. Was expecting Joe Cirella, since he was the first guy to get the interim tag after Cull's callup.

Nice! Is he going to Reggie Dunlop it? Player/Coach?

I think this is great! Buutt... Isn't this a bit too soon to be promoting him to HC? Didn't the team struggle last season when he took over?

He was being groomed for it. I thought the apprenticeship might have been longer.

Didn't Brett end up being the HC after though? What were those details again?

He did, yes. Cull got called up because Lambert and Larsen were unavailable, Cirella was named interim head coach, then he was unavailable (medical leave, I think) so Sutter was given the interim tag.

Darryl went right from NHL player to NHL coach. Aside from 2 seasons as an IHL coach which wasn't really a developmental league, his whole coaching experience was NHL. I would bet that Brett, being pretty much a career AHL guy and surrounded by young players trying to make it, bodes well for how he relates to them.
From a Calgary Flames lore perspective, I am happy to see a continuation of Sutters in the organization. There have been ups and downs, but you just know that family is all about the Calgary Flames.

Ouwit. Outplay. Outlast. So he's good for Survivor. Let's see how he manages coaching.

Congrats to him. We all knew this was coming eventually. We all know it is only a matter of time now before he becomes the Flames HC one day. Only a matter of time it seems before he ends up as a head coach in the NHL at some point anyway if not with the Flames.
