===Coaching=== Immediately after retiring, he was named the Blues' head coach (1988β1992). In 1991, he won the [[Jack Adams Award]] as the NHL's best coach. All told, he spent the first 16 years of his adult life at ice level with the Blues. Sutter subsequently held head coaching positions with the [[Boston Bruins]], [[Calgary Flames]], and [[Chicago Blackhawks]] (2001β2004). On June 21, 2005, the Blackhawks hired [[Dale Tallon]] as their new general manager; Tallon and the rebuilding Blackhawks decided not to renew Sutter's contract. During the 2006β07 season, Sutter coached the [[Bentley Generals]] of the [[Chinook Hockey League]], leading the team to its first berth in the [[Allan Cup]], Canada's senior men's hockey championship. Sutter was named the head coach of the [[Western Hockey League]]'s [[Red Deer Rebels]] on July 12, 2007, replacing his younger brother [[Brent Sutter|Brent]], who left the Rebels to become the head coach of the NHL's [[New Jersey Devils]]. On March 24, 2008, the Rebels announced that Brian Sutter had resigned as head coach of the team, citing personal reasons.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.faceoff.com/hockey/nhlnews/story.html?id=1c76570f-48a9-4cf2-99bf-42956c4adf40 |title=Brian Sutter resigns as junior coach |date=March 24, 2008 |access-date=2009-04-06 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110724081733/http://www.faceoff.com/hockey/nhlnews/story.html?id=1c76570f-48a9-4cf2-99bf-42956c4adf40 |archive-date=July 24, 2011 }}</ref> Sutter returned as head coach of the Generals for the 2008β09 season, leading them to its first Allan Cup title in [[2009 Allan Cup|2009]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Hockey/NHL/Calgary/2009/04/06/9023256-sun.html |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120718000906/http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Hockey/NHL/Calgary/2009/04/06/9023256-sun.html |url-status=usurped |archive-date=July 18, 2012 |title=Another Sutter in Calgary? |date=April 6, 2009 |access-date=2009-04-06}}</ref> In August 2012, Sutter left the Generals to become the new head coach of the Innisfail Eagles, also of the Chinook Hockey League.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.innisfailprovince.ca/article/20120821/INN0801/308219959/0/INN|title=Innisfail Eagles net Brian Sutter as coach|date=21 August 2013|publisher=Innisfail Province|access-date=April 22, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130630181921/http://www.innisfailprovince.ca/article/20120821/INN0801/308219959/0/INN|archive-date=June 30, 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> He stepped down as head coach of Innisfail in 2022.<ref>https://www.thealbertan.com/innisfail-news/brian-sutter-steps-down-as-innisfail-eagles-coach-5857512</ref>
