Sure they may not be x and o guys.

But if this is their logic, it is pretty tough to argue
- last time the franchise was in a similar-ish state, Sutter stepped in and made them a playoff team, darn near won a cup
- he stepped in to LA, fixed them up and won 2 cups
- he is available now
- Tre’s handpicked guy just flopped colossally

The bar is now Sutter. How can Tre justify his guy to those cutting the cheques and avoid part of that justification being why not Sutter?
