2) yes, Sutter does adjust to the team - you are just flat out wrong here. The notion that Sutter has one style of play, and forces it on his team, is patently false.
Sorry, but you can actually go through the teams that Sutter has coached and see the bodies he's relied upon. I've already done the comparison to the LA Kings and we are short eight to ten players with the size and physicality he demands. This team is not physically capable of playing heavy hockey, the trademark of all Sutter teams.[/QUOTE]

Maybe we see more Ruzicka, Pospisil, Ritchie. Wouldn't be that bad.

We wouldn't see Simon or Ryan around, but I have a feeling Darryl would like Mangiapane and Dube. He's not going to be able to trade Gaudreau. He loves Backlund. Bennett might work out with Darryl or he'll get rid of him fast.

Probably wouldn't see Nestorov or Kylington around, but will probably see Mackay more, maybe Yelesin who is a physical defender.

That's about it for the small players.
