To me it's like comparing Raymond to Bouma. One guy is a way more valuable player and it's not even close.

How is it not close? Look at Sutter's scoring numbers on the Penguins. They're pathetic. He's played full seasons for each of the past 5 years and his career high is 33 points.
This actually illustrates it better: since joining Pit, he's played 3 seasons on one of the more offensively talented squads in the league, and out of 303 players who have averaged at least 500 even strength minutes, he's 268th in points per 60 minutes of ice time. Right ahead of Marcel Goc.
PS - Nick Bonino is 66th over that stretch, a few places ahead of Daniel and Henrik Sedin. And for those saying "yeah, but Perry and Getzlaf", Corey Perry was Bonino's 15th most common even strength linemate in 2013-2014, Getzlaf was 18th. The year before, 18th and 21st. He didn't play with them at evens.
This is just... bad. Awful, really. Exactly what you'd come to expect from Benning. What a goof.
