Anze Kopitar's done. Milan Lucic's perhaps next. What about the coach?
"Oh no, I'll be coaching here next year," Darryl Sutter said Monday, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.
That's right. Sutter, who's without a contract beyond this season, is much more interested in an inflated coaching market than walking off into the sunset.
"No doubt I'll get something done here," he said. "We've talked a little, but they've been focused on Kopitar."
Chicago Blackhawks boss Joel Quenneville - the only coach other than Sutter to win a Stanley Cup over the last four seasons - signed a three-year contract last week that will apparently pay him $6 million per season.
Or for enough reason to stick around.
