I can see why some players would hate playing for Sutter, and it's not because he's a hardass. It's because he has a complete double standard for certain players and if you've ever had a boss who plays favourites you would know how toxic that is.
I think when you have two goalies, and both are disappointing it's logical to give the veteran with a better resume and a Vezina runner up the longer rope to turn it around.

Without either guy going they are (were) sunk.

Turning around Markstrom saves your season.
