Sick of watching him utilize the player like hes a mucker and grinder getting 15 minutes a night, stapling trash like Lucic on his line.
Look around the league almost every team that has a star player like this gives the player ice time. Its as if suddenly playing 15 minutes from 19 is making a difference.

Sutter is old school. That can turn off a lot of players, and it wouldn't shock me if Huberdeau hates playing for him.
Rhett on Barn Burner just on Friday's episode talked about how a month after they lost Game 7 in 2006 he was working out at the Saddledome and Sutter was saying things like "oh yeah NOW you are working out? etc". Rhett stopped working out there.
Sutter reminds me of those old school office managers who would yell and scream and threaten to motivate a group of workers. That management style just doesn't work anymore.
