Seriously, how do we hold him accountable in any way? You can’t trade everyone but why would you when almost everyone else is doing well under Sutter? I’m fine with criticizing Sutter or cutting him loose entirely, as at least that’s something different, but I’m just searching for someone to explain why Huberdeau gets a free pass or, if we are allowed to criticize him, what criticisms people think are valid?

The responses to criticism or Huberdeau are either to blame Sutter entirely, or some vague “maybe Huberdeau shares some of the blame but we can’t begin to speculate on how we should go about assigning it.” Doesn’t make sense to me.



“Was called out and proven false”? For one, who cares? If you think it’s baloney move along. But if you don’t then two, who did he play with the other 30%? Ghosts? And what about the guy who plays on the other side of Kadri? Or is it just 70% with one guy and that’s it?

He’s had multiple games with everyone and has done nothing with it. It doesn’t really matter how long the stretches were, he’s made everyone worse. Lindholm/Toffoli got better without him. Mangiapane got better without him. Backlund/Coleman got better without him.

He's made everyone worse? Can you actually prove that?
