ANDY SUTTON RUMORS & GOSSIP

Richard Cloutier: Sutton Re-Signed; Sticking Around

Sometimes, even Oilers management do the right thing. Late Saturday, Nick Kypreos from Sportsnet passed on the news that defenseman Andy Sutton and the Edmonton Oilers were close to signing a one-year contract extension worth $1.75mil. The Oilers website and other sports sites have yet to confirm this signing, but it makes complete sense. The Oilers, at best, could have dealt...

John Jaeckel: Interesting Late Night Tip

What I heard is that a number...

Andy Sutton Returns From Another Suspension

from Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal, “It seemed like an eternity I was out, but we’ve got a lot of energy in this room and I’m looking to get back and pick up where I left off,” said Sutton. Well, not exactly. He knows he’s going to have to change his method of hitting somewhat, maybe use different body parts. “This will be hard because...

A Major Suspension for Andy Sutton?

RE 11-12: Ken Sutton

Ken Sutton is massive. Huge. I'm fairly certain he'll be a third pairing enforcer who has a lot of penalty killing experience. After his acquisition I had a look at his previous jobs and that's what the resume looks like to me. I wonder how long Sutton will be in town. He's 36, makes 2M and is a free agent next summer. Should the Oilers need to move him before the trade deadline...
