Like it wasn't a great game to give him an opportunity to show what he can do due to how the game played out, but with what little time he had, he earned more opportunities. I think Sutter is a really good coach in a lot of important ways, but I wish he could have acted a little more normal when it came to things he would say to the media.

That's incredibly dry and boring though. Would rather have Sutterisms.
The players trot out robotic cliche answers and people talk about how they want more personality in the game.
