Darryl Sutter and the slow, old, mediocre roster is. You could not pick a worse coach, worse system, and worse line mates for a player like Jonathan Huberdeau. Just a terrible combination, and yeah…I’m done with Darryl Sutter hockey. It is garbage. I’m not sure why we’d even defend it either - he got out coached by that Just for Men guy in Edmonton in the playoffs.
You nailed it.

Florida allowed east/west hockey and Johnathan was easily and still is one of the best east/west forwards in the NHL.

Sadly Daryl insists on north/south and dump & chase style hockey so it’s exactly why Huberdeau has looked so out of joint. Completely different system than what he’s been elite at for his whole career.

What a joke.
