Holy shit Darryl Sutter's a genius.
Six points out of the playoffs with 4 games in hand, he traded his own son Brett and Ian White (not good enough to help the Leafs, not good enough to help the Flames) and got Kostopoulos and Babchuk back.
Kosto and Babchuk together earn less than White, so he wins in cap space; Kosto fits with the Sutter mentality, and Babchuk will replace White at a third of the cost.
And Sutter doesn't even look like the asshole who's getting rid of his own son after a drunken assault arrest, 'cause right there waiting for lil' Sutter in Carolina is his cousin Brandon, who now sports the A on his jersey as the leader he was born to be.
That's like four birds with one stone.
