Brent Sutter: Here! Here’s the boss-fellow now! — how are you Sutter?

(Enter Darryl Sutter with Jay Feaster)

Darryl Sutter: How are you, Sutter?

Brett Sutter: G’day Sutter!

Darryl Sutter: Sutter.

Brent Sutter: Hello Sutter.

Darryl Sutter: Sutter.

Ron Sutter: How are you, Sutter?

Darryl Sutter: G’day Sutter.

Darryl Sutter: Gentlemen, I’d like to introduce a man from Florida who is joining us this year in the philosophy department at the University of Rock’em Sock’em.

EverySutter: G’day!

Jay Feaster: Hello.

Darryl Sutter: Jay Feaster, Sutter. Jay Feaster, Sutter. Jay Feaster, Sutter.

Brett Sutter: Is your name not Sutter?

Jay Feaster: No, it’s Feaster.

Brent Sutter: That’s going to cause a little confusion.

Ron Sutter: Mind if we call you ‘Sutter’ to keep it clear?

I like Brett, great work ethic, but I think Van Der Gulik has outplayed him and not been given the same opportunities. I really hope Van Der Gulik makes the team this year, I think he's earned a shot in the NHL.

He'll probably get that shot with the Avs this fall. I've always been of a VDG too, would've liked him to roll in on a 4th line spot this year, but I guess depth passed him by.

Hmm you're right, though I never knew this until I looked this up.

Van der Gulik, unfortunately has been a slow starter during the past few camps - sounds like he had conditioning issues if you go back and listen to development/training camp interviews with Darryl.

Brett Sutter, on the other hand, has been among the best condition Flames (not just prospects), along with Chucko, Pelech who were up there with Iginla. Iirc, Sutter and Chucko have alternated being 2nd and 3rd the past two camps behind the captain

Yeah I really liked DVG but every time I saw him at camp he was awful. He seemed to get better as the season would go along but if you are going to win a spot you gotta start strong - and every year he did not.

Jackman - Sutter/Stone - Moss
Ivanans

IR? - Langkow

Does this sound about right? If so, not a bad forward set to be quite honest...
