The legacy that is Sutter |

The Sutter family is synonymous with hockey. When Ma and Pa Sutter had seven sons I’m sure they could never have imagined that six of them, Darryl, Duane, Brent, Ron and Rich would go on to play in the NHL and their grandsons too would carry that hockey yes I’ll go ahead and say it, legacy.
Between the six Sutters there are 2,934 points and six Stanley Cups, four for Duane and two for Brent.
Eldest son Brian was selected in the second round, 20th overall, by the St. Louis Blues in 1976 and stayed with the team for his entire 12-year career. The team retired his No.11 jersey in 1988.
Most famous round these parts would be Darryl. He’s the Flames current GM and the coach that led them during the Cinderella season of 03/04 before those damned Tampa Bay Lightning won the Cup (that puck was in!). It was signs like “In Darryl we trust,” that sealed his fame in the Sea of Red. |
