Wranglers captain Brett Sutter is one of eight players to play 1,000 games in the AHL, but he\u0027s still chasing one thing — a championship.
Calgary Flames Head Coach Darryl Sutter watches the Calgary Wranglers battle the Abbotsford Canucks during Game 1 of the second round of the AHL playoffs at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary on Wednesday, April 26, 2023.What won’t show up on Wednesday’s score sheet is that Sutter — we’re talking about the captain, not the coach — also provided the Wranglers with a jolt when he addressed the team at a pre-playoff dinner at a local Italian joint.
As the Wranglers focus on Friday’s Game 2 at the Saddledome, Sutter certainly doesn’t want this to be a go-win-it-for-that-guy storyline.He has twice advanced to the AHL’s conference finals, most recently with the Ontario Reign in 2016. He hasn’t been out of the divisional rounds since. Calgary Wranglers forward Jakob Pelletier celebrates after scoring on Abbotsford Canucks goaltender Spencer Martin in overtime of Game 1 of their second-round AHL playoff series at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary on Wednesday, April 26, 2023.“We’ve gotta have fun with it,” said Sutter, who will turn 36 before the Calder Cup is handed out and hopes to still be busy at the rink as he celebrates his birthday.
They know they can lean on the veteran forward with No. 7 on his back and a ‘C’ stitched on the front of his jersey.
