The new NHL confused him. And in that confusion he made a lot of mistakes. I think he learned from those mistakes and he's applying what he learned to his new job as coach of the King. All he ever really had to do is stick with what he knew which was hard-nosed hard-working hockey.

I will disagree with you here, my take on Sutter was he was always a coach never a GM, all of his decisions were based on what will get a win right now this season, I don't think he really cared about anything else.
I think if you give any coach the ability to make trades they will trade away draft picks and prospects for proven veterans as all they care about is right now.
