Have the playoffs changed that much though? Tampa learned you have to check in order to score goals in the Stanley Cup playoffs so they made that adjustment and the Blues won just a few years ago playing slow, grinding, heavy type of hockey.
It’s not any one type of style that wins playoff games, we’ve seen all kinds of styles win in the playoffs over the years. It ultimately comes down to individuals a lot of times and matchups and how you ultimately dictate your game to your opponent.
Also you’re right, Sutter did have a #1 franchise center, a #1 franchise defenseman and key role players. Do the Flames currently have a legit #1 franchise center or a legit #1 franchise defenseman?
