Alot of people with their head in the sand IMO. We consistently see Sutter guys play ahead of guys who take chances and try to get creative. In Sutters mind were not checking enough in dump in situations to create the offence. He said as much in his interview on TNT during the Canucks game (God is TNT a 100x better production than anything we get up here).

Like was said earlier. Tkachuk was a checker. A skilled one. Gaudreau was small but able to go into hard areas and fish out pucks and carry the puck. As much as youd think they werent "Sutter" guys their skill sets really were suited for what Sutter preaches. We cant undo the contracts we signed to the new guys, we can do a redo on the coach though.
