Some of you guys would be shocked by how most of these guys dad's talk to them. Go watch the Mitch Marner vid on YouTube

Anyway great game, but with CBJ coming in the Flames can't get too high. We will see what Sutter actually thinks of Pelts Monday. Earning another NHL game is what he actually wants not Eric Francis making the coach blow smoke up his ass.

Have you ever listened to Francis talk about the Flames between periods of a game? He is the most negative ass every game, and you want to use this crap to dunk on Sutter?

Just a quick tip, don't follow the Francis or Salim school of journalism.

We’ve had bad coaches but this is the first time we’ve had a good coach become bad and completely unlikeable


Darryl, not only are you doing a terrible job you’re being a total unnecessary prick and an egomaniac who’s going to hurt the entire orgs reputation.

Lol. None of this is relevant. I just don't think the coach is particularly easy to cheer for. Typically I want to root for someone who I like.

How do you know he didn’t take the kid aside privately after the game and chat?

Bet he did.

And yet those same parents tend to be the most protective of their kids careers. The rumors were Mitch Marner's dad was notoriously hard on coaches at every level he played.

You're lying to yourself if you dont think there are parents of prospects out there that look how Sutter talks and uses his young prospects and go "I wouldnt want you to play there, you wouldnt get a chance until youre 23"

Stoked they got the win! If this was a preview of playoff intensity this team will be a handful.

I'm not seeing anything different from him compared to last season, or all the Cup-winning years in LA, or the run in 2004. That's how he is.

When his team is winning, people love his old curmudgeon act. When they're not, people hate it.

Gaudreau's dad liked that he was a hardass, like Guy...said so himself

I still think the comment about Huberdeau was crap. Pardon the pun.

But some of these posts about Sutter being a toxic human are way over the top. He’s not there to please the media.

It’s the NHL. The players do not need coddling in public.

It really isn't hard to not be a miserable jerk.

The media is just trying to do their job.

Like you say, it's the NHL. Speaking in press conferences after the game is part of being a coach.

I just think it’s hilarious that Sutter defenders assume he treats players better in private and not worse. How do you know?


His players locked him out of the dressing room and those were guys he had WON with

All I've seen from Salim lately are TMZ-style speculative tweets (or him re-tweeting his old tweets from months ago) about the locker room and the coach, almost like he's actively trying to get the coach fired or at least drive up negative opinion of him. Maybe Sutter has taken notice.

If it was anyone else but Salim asking that question, would Sutter have responded that way?
