Yup, I think Sutter's bar for rewarding different players is different since his expectations are different for a bottom 6 guy vs a top 6 guy and I have no issue with him rewarding Ritchie for a good game (by Ritchie's standards) last game. No hesitation to stick up for his teammate and didn't hurt his team in his minutes. It's a good thing for the players to push each other.
