Flames dismiss head coach Darryl Sutter after missed playoffs

The Calgary Flames have fired head coach Darryl Sutter, the latest major change at the NHL club after a disappointing season.

The Flames missed the playoffs this season with a 38-27-17 record.

Sutter's departure comes two weeks after former Flames general manager Brad Treliving turned down a contract extension and parted ways with the team.

Flames president of hockey operations and interim GM Don Maloney said at that time all aspects of the organization would be reviewed, including Sutter's future.

Sutter signed a multi-year contract extension with Calgary before this season after leading Calgary to a 50-21-11 record and a first-round playoff win in 2021-22.

Calgary underwent a major reworking in the off-season. Johnny Gaudreau signed with Columbus and another star forward, Matthew Tkachuk, was traded to Florida.

The Flames invested a combined $133 million US and 15 contract years in Jonathan Huberdeau, acquired in the Tkachuk deal, and free agent Nazem Kadri, but the duo fell well short of filling the offensive void left by Gaudreau and Tkachuk.
