Oilers coach: Ok kids, go play. Pretend you’re McDavid or Nurse, or pretend your role is to get the puck to McDavid or Nurse. Don’t worry about anything else.

Sutter: Go out and show you’re ready to play an NHL level game under this Stanley Cup winning system that none of you have ever played before. Don’t deviate from the system as the collective execution of the system is what will win us games in May.

Sutter’s system is successful when it’s executed well and when it’s not you lose 4-0 to Oiler scrubs. The roster tonight of rookies aren’t going to be ready to win under a Sutter system and the vets tonight aren’t up to speed yet or will be the weaker ends of the team.

This is why the Oilers only win preseason games and raise Preseason Champions banners.
