Report: Darryl Sutter agrees to terms with Kings

After saying he had no desire to go anywhere other than Los Angeles earlier Thursday, head coach Darryl Sutter reportedly agreed to terms on a new contract with the Kings, according to Lisa Dillman of the Los Angeles Times.

An official announcement is expected Friday, and Dillman also revealed Sutter could be in for a significant raise, reporting his annual salary would be higher than the $3 million per year earned by Edmonton Oilers coach Todd McLellan.

Last year, the 57-year-old made a reported $2.25 million.

Sutter joined the Kings midway through the 2011-12 season, where the team went on to win the first Stanley Cup in franchise history. Since then, his team has made playoff appearances in three of the last four seasons, including a second Cup victory in 2014.
