Flames appoint Brett Sutter as head coach of AHL’s Wranglers
CALGARY — Brett Sutter has been named the head coach of the Calgary Wranglers, which is the American Hockey League affiliate of the NHL’s Flames.
The son of Darryl Sutter, who was twice head coach of the Flames and once the team’s GM, moved into the coaching ranks last season after appearing in 1,090 AHL games and 60 NHL games.
“This is an organization that I am very familiar with having history as both a player and coach,” Brett Sutter said Friday in a statement.
“Having spent a lot of time at this level, I understand the role in developing players and have firsthand knowledge of what a great group we have here to work with. I can’t wait to get started.”
