BREAKING - Seven Players Willing to Reportedly Request Trade if Head Coach Isn't Fired
According to NHL insider Elliotte Friedman, Calgary Flames forward Nazem Kadri has spoken out against the team's head coach, Darryl Sutter, due to their poor performance this season. This uncommon move by Kadri has attracted attention from across the league.
Moreover, there have been rumors that multiple other Flames players may request trades if Sutter continues as head coach next season. Sutter, a former NHL player turned coach, is recognized for his low-event defensive style and intense training sessions. However, his outmoded coaching techniques and treatment of players, such as intentionally mispronouncing
Jakob Pelletier's name, have made him unpopular with the team and its supporters.
As the Flames aim to rebuild and improve their performance in the next season, the future of their coaching staff is uncertain.
Dean Molberg of The Nation Network has reported that Nazem Kadri is not the only Calgary Flames player feeling frustrated with head coach Darryl Sutter. According to the report, multiple players have threatened to request trades if Sutter stays on as coach for the next season.
Sutter's coaching style has received criticism from various players on the team. His demanding practice routines, emphasis on defensive strategies, and conduct towards players have led to widespread dissatisfaction and lack of enthusiasm.
There is a growing belief among Calgary Flames fans that the team's poor performance this season, coupled with GM Brad Treliving's expiring contract, could result in the entire front office being at risk. Reports of player dissatisfaction with head coach Darryl Sutter have further fueled fans' concerns.
Fans are comparing the situations of Johnny Gaudreau and
Matthew Tkachuk, who supposedly left the Flames due to their frustration with Sutter's coaching approach. Consequently, some fans are hopeful that a new front office could bring about the necessary improvements for the team.
Regardless of the veracity of these rumors, it is evident that the Flames require a change in fortunes. As the current season approaches its conclusion, fans will be closely following the team's moves during the offseason to see if any modifications are made.
