The Calgary Flames<\/a> have sacked manager Darryl Sutter on Monday as the team endured a difficult season, which saw them unable to advance to the playoff stages.<\/p>\n

The news comes two weeks after ex Flames general manager Brad Treliving turned down a contract extension and departed the club.<\/p>\n

Sutter was appointed as head-coach back in the 2020-21 season, replacing Geoff Ward and led the team to an impressive 50-21-11 record in the next campaign, toppled with a first-round playoff win.<\/p>\n

It was Sutter’s the second spell with the club after taking charge back in 2002 until 2010. He won two Stanley Cups after that with Los Angeles Kings<\/a> (in 2011-12 and 2013-14).<\/p>\n

\u201cOn behalf of ownership and all Calgary Flames<\/a> fans, we want to thank Darryl for his cumulative years of service to the Calgary Flames<\/a> and to the community at large,\u201d John Bean, president and chief executive officer of Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation, said in a statement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
