The floundering Flames shocked the hockey world by firing their coach late Thursday night (after a victory even!) and announcing that former coach, Darryl Sutter, who led them to the game seven of the Stanley Cup Finals in 2004 before coming up short, would be retaking the reins of the team.
That run was when we lived in Calgary, about six blocks from the infamous “Red Mile”, and one of the best experiences of my life!
