Tyler Toffoli Betrays Team and Pledges Support for Darryl Sutter
In the last few days, many Calgary Flames players went to the media to express their opinion on Darryl Sutter.
Nazem Kadri, Jonathan Huberdeau and Jakob Pelletier all had their issues with the coach and according to Dean Molberg from The Nation Network, several other Flames players have made the same threat that if Sutter is still coaching next season, they will ask to be traded.
Tyler Toffoli's opinion is different.
Toffoli Betrays Team and Pledges Support for Darryl Sutter
During the recording of the Empty Netters podcast, Toffoli had some great words for Sutter.
Here's what he said:
«Darryl's my favourite coach I've ever had. He's the most intelligent coach. Everything he does is for a reason That's what helped me be successful in the NHL is learning under him and how to be a pro.»
This might not be well received by his teammates, as many are growing tired of Sutter.
With only one year remaining on his contract, Sutter's job could be at stake if the Flames don't reach the playoffs.
In that case, do you think he could find a job in the NHL after all these negative opinions? Toffoli's comments might help his reputation, but will that be enough?
