The next 4 games will be big. Two against the Oilers and two against the Leafs. These are games where we will see a better test of how quickly and dramatically their character is adapting under Sutter, and of how big a difference Sutter's in-game coaching and adaptations make when facing adversity.

I’m curious how Sutter deals with McDavid. I wonder if he assigns Connor’s old buddy Sam to get intimate with him all game. I feel like Bennett would thrive in a “you have one job to do and we’re counting on you” role, and especially when it involves making someone else’s life miserable.
