Brent Sutter reflects on 1,000 games as Rebels head coach
It’s another milestone in the coaching career of Brent Sutter.
The long-time Red Deer Rebels boss coached his 1,000 WHL game Wednesday versus the Vancouver Giants.
Sutter took the coaching reins after purchasing the team in 1999 and, outside of a five-year NHL coaching stint, has held them ever since.
“Time has flown by, it’s gone by quickly to be quite honest,” Sutter told Cam Moon in an interview on 106.7 The Drive. “I’ve been here a long time, I’ve coached a lot of games, and there’s certainly been some good times and some not so good times.”
