Rumors have been floating around the hockey forums for weeks now that Calgary Flames General Manager Darryl Sutter was going to be bringing his younger brother Brent over to Stampede central, but all you Flames fans out there can rest easy now as the former New Jersey Devils coach has indeed been named head coach of the Flames.
At a press conference held Tuesday afternoon, elder brother Darryl also named Ryan McGill, Dave Lowry and Jamie McLennan assistant coaches. With Brent now on board, that brings five Sutter relative together on the Calgary Flames. Giddy up!
