Not sure why Sutter is leaving Markstrom in for this beating.
Only thing I can think of was he told him that he’s the guy for the rest of the season. No excuses, no goalie debate. You’re the starter come hell or high water.
Proving a point maybe? Nothing matters anymore I say let chaos reign.
What point exactly though? I guess he's going to have Vladar rested for tomorrow but it's ugly to see a goaltender left in a game where he and the team are struggling like this.
Defend Huberdeau all you want. But paying that guy rite money when Florida didn’t want to was a mistake. It will be a bit anchor for another 8 years or more considering the eventual buy out that will prolong the money even longer.
And it wasnt just highlight watching. It was also gauging the fan reactions in the Florida boards.
The guy is a marshmallow. He has no jam. He needs a stud to play with. But how are we going to find a stud now? Lindholm ain’t it. Kadri ain’t it. Mangiapane ain’t it. The top of the 2023 NHl entry draft was it.
He's a very good offensive, playmaking winger. But he shouldn't be THE guy on a team and making him play defense like Sutter wants is simply not a fit.

I like to think there’s some intense locker room drama none of us are privy to and he’s gonna let Markstrom get shelled until the team goes back to doing things his way.
It’s like the flames players think that since they won’t take a pound of flesh neither will the other team.
Such soft loser feckless thinking.
This is a violent game played by dudes that want to eat your lunch. Flames are the rich kids that just give their lunch and their spare cash to bullies cuz they have rich parents in spring bank who make it all better.

For this year agreed. However, by next year at a salary of 10.5m per year. He has to be that guy to drive a line or carry a team, however unlikely it will be.
Even Murray Edwards can’t be blind to Sutter’s piss poor “motivational” antics. Honestly, if he’s kept on as coach I might have to switch to the Kraken full time.
