Last summer, Darryl Sutter announced that he was retiring from coaching in the NHL after a lustrous career. 

However, on Tuesday, he couldn’t be away any longer. 

The Anaheim Ducks have named Sutter as advisor to the coaching staff. While he won’t be behind the bench, we know he will have a tremendous impact on the coaching staff. 


Here is a full breakdown from NHL.com of his career and what his addition to the Ducks mean to the franchise: 

Sutter guided the Los Angeles Kings to a pair of Stanley Cup championships in 2012 and 2014, finishing with franchise-best 225 career wins (225-147-53).

Prior to his time in Calgary, Sutter served as the head coach of the San Jose Sharks for six seasons from 1997-03. Sutter began his coaching career with the Chicago Blackhawks, beginning as an assistant coach (1987-88), associate coach (1990-92), and then head coach (1992-93).
