His job is to coach. That's where it should end. If he doesn't like that he should be shown the door regardless of the optics.
Didn’t people lement and bemoan for said elite coach?? No organization is paying this many coaches to be paid not to coach. He’s the one with the Stanley Cup rings no? Wasn’t he supposed to tell the organization which players belong and which don’t? They fired a head coach one month into his 2 year deal for Darryl. Truth is, Sutter probably has more leash than Tre or any new GM coming in. He has the power right now.

And so far, from what we’ve seen, he likes his veterans like Gio and Tanev and other older/experienced players. He’s benched and scratched and the Dubes and the Valimakis and hasn’t pulled many punches criticizing the youth. He doesn’t like young players who have to learn to be a pro, he wants pros now. Any new young kids coming in will undoubtably be in the dog house. So I just don’t see him being ok with babysitting, he’s gonna want a good, solid, dependable vets who can play his style methinks.
