Johnny has to be better. No doubt about it.
But the drawing of conclusions about the type of player he is, based on last night, is chicken little territory.
Anybody remember game 1 against Vancouver in 2004? When we lost 5-2 and Sutter called out his best players? Iginla, Conroy and Gelinas? We all remember how that ended up.
The game was frustrating because of how they lost. But it was encouraging, they clean up the nonsense, they're right in this.
In 2015 they weren't even in the same class as Anaheim, that was obvious from the drop of the puck in that series. This one is and will be different.
