More often than not they don’t.

Nah. There is something off about that
Just think about it.
Huberdeau had 115 points and Kadri was on 100 point pace. These guys can make plays. It’s a fact
Now Sutter lays out the game plan. We see it. It’s high volume of low probability shots, going for garbage goals.
He knows you can grind out a win, so if you can check to maximize possession, then play high volume shots and grind out the offence from there, it’s the holy grail, right? Ugh
He doesn’t get to just sit back and blame the players
Yes, they do have skill. They choose not to recognize and maximize it.
And I am fully aware I’m saying it after a high offensive output game. They happen. Statistical outliers happen, and the message to the players that they are unskilled is wrong
