I've always seen this Sutter/Treliving/Huska/Conroy debacle as an issue of finding the right players for the play style of the coach.
It's pretty clear and known upfront Sutter requires certain types of players (that are harder and harder to find) to win. Treliving didn't find them and Sutter was too stubborn to adjust.
The big key here, whether it's Love or Huska, is that Conroy understands what the style/systems are going to be and getting the right skaters.
