The guy knows more than any of us. Not going to say he's smarter as there is all kinds of "smart" but he's boots on the ground and the rest of us are watching games and going about or lives.
If Valimaki is sitting I think we can assume it's one of the following ...
1. He hasn't been better than Zadorov in Sutter's mind.
2. He's a toss up but tough love will make him better in Sutter's mind.
Pretty sure the guy isn't just scratching superior players because of a God complex.

I mean if I came into the game takes thread and any opinion you had of a player in the game I could just say "well Sutter knows best and he is still playing him so he must be doing good" I think that would be kind of annoying wouldn't you say? And probably not true.
There is a reason Sutter likes Zadorov more than Valimaki and we don't know that reason but that also doesn't mean it's the right reason or it is the right choice. Sutter has made mistakes before and he will again.
