That extension looks bad right now. Took him no time at all to wear on the players and lose the room.

I don't think he has lost the room. I think that's exaggerating
points in 17 of 21 games going into last night
that's not a team that's tuned the coach out
the Vancouver Canucks are that
but has his coaching of this particular group been elite? not sure it has. I think more can be squeezed out of this group
I think work and adjustments can be made to the first pp unit
I think weegar can be inserted there, and pelletier and phillips can have useful places in this roster that help motivate this group as it pushes guys to keep their regular spots
competition is good. youthful enthusiasm is good. Sutter could use these things to his advantage and he doesn't
it doesn't mean he isn't doing more good things than not with this veteran group. there are just some ways in which he himself could grow his toolbox and help himself compete with these pure skill teams with scoring talent on all 4 lines
