I do think there were some adjustments Sutter could have made.

He didn't line match the McDavid line once they combined him and Drai.

The man to man defense was not working against those two either.

And our aggressive pinching and forechecking system in the offensive zone was leading to us getting caught and giving up a ton of odd man rushes.

Goaltending wasn't good either, but I do think there were some things Sutter could have done to try to slow down 97 and 29 and it didn't happen.
