I agree with the Jack Adam’s comment but I don’t agree that Sutter doesn’t have an ego. How many inferences did he make about “knowing how to win” and the fact he’s done it? And he’s the only true one who knows what it takes? That was always the underlying theme to me in so many press conferences.

Personally I think Sutters ego is off the charts, potentially the most egotistical coach I’ve ever seen. How else do you explain what really matters, which are his actions? His actions and bizarre coaching choices last year were literally rooted in his belief that he knew all. How else do you square playing Huberdeau on his off wing or throwing in Nick Ritchie in the most important shootout opportunity of the season?
