It's not a video game with the coach using the controller. If you don't think he's getting through to the players, I understand that. If replacing the coach is easier than replacing immoveable contracts, sure I get that too.
He's not coaching an .880 save percentage.
I'm confident he's not coaching Kadri to pick and choose when he forechecks or looks for his teammates.
And to suggest Sutter is the difference between 115 point Huberdeau and 50 point Huberdeau is giving him far more credit than he deserves.
If you feel so strongly that Sutter is that useless, you should be prepared for some debate IMO.

Provide evidence to the contrary. All things are interrelated. The lower offensive output and poor save percentage is a result of all the things I mentioned already, because teams have learned how to play the Flames and win, despite being outworked and outshot. It's not 100% on him, but he bears a significant portion of the blame this year, because time and time again he has done very little to right the ship and get things moving in a good direction.
So far there's a lot of points to support my position, and not as much to support yours. I'm having a debate, willingly, but I haven't had anything presented yet as convincing evidence that cannot also be explained by poor coaching and leadership by Sutter.
