And let's be clear, here: my responses have been directed specifically to those who appear to believe that Sutter solves all of the teams problems. I am ecstatic with the hire, and happy with the win, but will continue to regard these juniour-high-level "told you so" retorts as exceptionally premature.
So, you can spare me your sanctimonious "think before you predict" advice.

I mean, it would be kind of be your style to ridicule those who were pining for something you had deemed an impossibility.
IMO it's too early for I told you so, but it's also the wrong time to bring up skepticism over the core and their mental toughness, ability to win when it counts, etc. These are the exact things Sutter was brought in to improve.
Let's see if he can get it done. I'll say it again, there is absolutely nothing to be afraid of in this division. Other than the current standings unfortunately, but seems there's enough time to deal with that.
