Big deal.

The players can still choose to not play hard for Sutter. If a Monahan or a Tkachuk don't like what Sutter is selling, they have all the power to get themselves traded. They don't care if the Calgary Flames lose Sean Monahan, the Calgary Flames care if the Calgary Flames lose Sean Monahan.

But there's the thing.

This idea that the players - the core - just tune out the coaches is just sensationalism.

They do buy what Sutter is selling, and it's got nothing to do with fear.
