I still think this is more on the coaching. I don’t think either team is trying that hard out there but we need to be dressing the kids and not playing our top players all the time.
I feel like if the team really mails it in and loses then Sutter makes their lives more difficult. They are putting in the minimum effort and still winning because the Canucks are playing with a far more depleted lineup.
Hockey players play to win the game not strategically lose to pick a handful of spots higher in the draft. The beef is with how the people in power are deploying the players not the players themselves
