Quite simply put, this is a team of coach killers. They help their coach make the playoffs one season and then falter badly the next season. They’re an easily satisfied bunch without a ton to offer their opponent. If Sutter can fix this core’s problem from year to year, then he truly is an elite coach.

Hopefully part of Sutter fixing the problem is telling Treliving what players need to be shipped out. I don't think some out key guys are the kind of players you win with, at least not if they are key players.
