There is clearly a lack of willingness to play youngsters - one of his biggest supporters in Rhett Warriner even just called it out.
There is clearly a bias towards bigger players - for Sutter he's clearly not a fan of the risk of a young, small player. Proven NHLer then sure he will deal with it, but I don't think he wants to be the one to find out if a smaller player can cut it.
And there is clearly some disrespectful trends towards these young players in the media. You can say that it's him trolling the media, or that he's always done this, but it doesn't change the fact that the narrative is out there in NHL circles now.
So yes there is a "this". Eliotte Friedman already made mention of it two weeks ago, and it seems to be even more widespread now tonight.
