Brent Sutter - Islander Stanley Cups, Owning a hockey team and the important roles in the business.
You’ll find no family in the hockey community more steeped in talent and tradition then the Sutters from Viking, Alberta. We were thrilled to have Brent Sutter as a guest on the Top Cheddar podcast.
Sutter played over 1,000 games in the NHL which included two Stanley Cup wins with the Islanders and was an NHL All-Star as part of his 18 year career with New York and the Chicago Blackhawks. Add to that, three Canada Cup wins!
After stepping down from the NHL, Brent and his family purchased the Red Deer Rebels of the WHL. Owning the team for over 20 years, he shared with us his view of how he must operate in his various roles (Owner, GM, Coach) and the type of team he needed to build around him.
Brent has enjoyed a long coaching career. Besides coaching the Rebels, he has coached two World Junior Gold Medals (2005 & 2006), and coached the New Jersey Devils and Calgary Flames in the NHL.
There were tons of great stories he shared and we can’t wait for you to listen in and enjoy!
