I'm sure guys like Lewis, Lucic, Toffoli etc are telling the young guys or even Huberdeau after the poop incident, not to sweat it. It's just Sutter.
You don't have to like the comments to understand what's actually going on. Sutter could use a bit of Levity every now and then, he's not particularly pleasant with the media on game days. He hasn't been for like 40 years. News flash.
I think he's also getting a bit annoyed with the Calgary media. In LA the questions were pretty soft ball and he'd either pan them or be curt. Here I think the media, with their game day questions are either trying too hard or not at all.
I think he also pays more attention than he let's on to what the media is writing and saying.
That doesn't excuse the comments though. I didn't really like the Huberdeau poopgate comments, the comments tonight, or even his comments about Gaudreaus 500th game 2 years ago. But that's how he is. We don't know what gets said behind closed doors.
But to suggest that it's North Korea in the dressing room I think is a bit hyperbole/sky is falling type of stuff.
