Sutter is the exact opposite of this.

We do disagree, but it really doesn’t matter. The result is the same. I guess the only difference is whether it takes a Sutter or any coach with a better system to get these guys winning. I feel like you need a coach with his credibility because most systems are winning systems if they are played well. And I don’t buy the “it was the wrong system for this team” argument, since this team has such a mix of players. And the argument was always “Ward coaches a dump and chase system which is wrong for this team”. Of course now it’s “I didn’t mean this kind of dump and chase”. This team is absolutely built for dump and chase, the same system the champion Lightning uses.
