Players need to nut up and get the level of play into their heads that Sutter is trying to instill.
This core has gone through 4 previous coaches with only two instances of reasonable success. The heart attack Flames of the Hartley era and then the crazy fun season that was Bill Peters 1st season. Thats it. The rest has been wishy washy inconsistent hockey.
Want to be creative and make flashy plays? Better get real good at basic north south hockey first.
In a metaphors, gotta re learn to walk before you can run. Exorcise some bad demons that crept into the core.
That's what happening here.
