Yeah this is what I think.
We hear it all the time. Sutter is all about giving you a guy you need match up against, and outplay him.
I have no doubt tonight he told Monahan you need to outwork Matthews, and told Gaudreau he needed to outplay Marner.
I kind of like it. These guys need to start being more hungry and be more confident going up against other top guys.
I don’t love pairing them with Ritchie if you’re going to do that to them though. Might want to put Dube or Mangiapane with them if you’re going to do that.
I still think Leivo should probably be with Lindholm and Tkachuk and Dube with Monahan and Gaudreau.
