    Darryl Sutter has come to contract terms with the Los Angeles Kings.

    Lisa Dillman of the Los Angeles Times reported Sutter has taken the Kings’ contract offer and an official announcement could come as early as Friday. The offer was reportedly for two years.

    The Times said the deal is in excess of $3 million per-year.

    This keeps Toronto's Mike Babcock as the highest-paid coach in the NHL with a contract worth $50 million over eight years.

    Last week, Kings general manager Dean Lombardi said Sutter had an offer “on the table” from the team. Then over the weekend, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reported Sutter had some concerns about the Kings in regards to their salary cap/free agency situation and their prospects.

    Sutter noted that reports of his waffling on the Kings have been overblown to a degree in a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times.

    “I have no desire to go anywhere else or do any of that. We’ll get it worked out. That’s my plan,” he said.
