God help you fellas if you don't empty the tank on every shift.

The bag skate on Tuesday won't be fun and you'll remember it as the first day Darryl instilled a new work ethic in you.

His words were....unfinished business. He meant it. And now my brothers its ALL on you.

Go to the net hard. Bang crash and be the first team to the puck.

Protect the house. No passengers. Lets go get our debt. Today's the start of something great.

Learn to play hard and win ....enjoy the fruits of your labor ....Darryl freeking Sutter.

What a great day for hockey.

During Darryl's interview on the Fan in the afternoon, I am sure he said he will be able to communicate with Huska during the game. I could be wrong because I was still so excited at the news but I think I heard it.

In any case, Darryl appears to respect Huska a lot so I expect they already have a game plan set up. Go Flames Go!!!

No more stupid bump back in the PP please. Sutter should know how to gain the zone fast rather than doing the bump back EVERY single time.

Good opportunity for Ryan Huska to see if he's Head coach material in the NHL even if it's only 2 games to showcase it. Wish him all th best, let's win for Sutter.

That play should’ve been the first thing Darryl told thachuk to cut out of his game.

I have a feeling that Darryl will appear behind the bench like a surly Force ghost and motivate the bejeezus out of the boys.

Hopefully the steely presence of Darryl hangs over this group and silently, and mysteriously kicks their collective butts. GFG!!

The Oilers haven't been scoring and are frustrated. I would take a boring, methodical defensive effort to frustrate them into taking risks and giving up opportunities the other way over a high flying entertaining game tonight.

Tonight is an audition for the new boss. It will be fascinating to see who shows up.

They'll probably score a few because you just know they watch the scoring race. If you thought their defense was non existent before, they'll be completely non existent at 5v5 in the d zone tonight.

However, It would be truly awesome if they went another game without points. Like so awesome. Especially if there's some derpy highlight with an atrocious back check

Yeah, it will be interesting and unique. Usually when new coaches are hired, they have time with the team right away. This is weird because Sutter is sort of a specter hanging over the team with an overarching message, but hasn't directly had contact with the team.

I think tonight will indicate who "gets it" right away and who's going to need some extra time with Sutter to figure out how to play with the effort needed.

My guess is he won't have much to say to forwards like Backlund, Mangiapane, and Ryan, and defensemen like Tanev and Giordano. Everyone else may be up for extra discussion time with the coach, but we'll see which ones are bringing the increased effort with the traditional new coach bump.
