It's naive, but it would be nice if all players - rookies and veterans, $700,000 guys and $7 mil guys - really were all treated the same.

I remember Glencross being benches by Sutter at one point. In the interview he basically saidhe had no idea why it happened and didn't think his play at all warranted it (it did by the way.) Of course after that his effort was much better, but it had nothing to do with spending time in the press box.
