I said halfway through the season that it seemed like Brad was calling guys up to play, but Sutter was just ignoring him. Now I believe that even more.
I also said a couple years back that Tree would never hire a coach with a pedigree like Sutter's, out of fear of eventually losing a power struggle resulting in the owners choosing the coach over him.
I'm hoping Tree gets a solid shot someplace where he's just handed a staffing budget and the autonomy to build the team he wants.
