Sutter teams are always well structured. Last season, though, for whatever reason the breakdowns were glaring. Slot chances, breakaways, odd-man rushes at rates much higher than the year before. By no means does it excuse Markstrom, but it contributed.
Finishing and coaching were definitely among the other core issues. Personnel deployment was inexplicable for most of the season.
