There was a reason LA locked him out of the room. And when he returned with an arena employee to unlock, reportedly returned to an empty room barricaded with garbage bins

They got sick of his ####

They better do a deep dive and interview every individual the next coach has come in contact with throughout his life. You can't go into next year with a coach who has been in a situation like that, for the chances it gets alleged by the fanbase again is absolute.

A guy with decent inside information said Sutter was a big reason 13 and 19 left. You hear 11 and 28 on garbage bag day? That’s a big problem
So big meany meant Markstrom, Huberdeau and Kadri fell apart completely?

Not sure that's saying a lot about any of their characters is it?

He was being mean to Markstrom by playing him and not throwing him under the bus apparently.

You're going back to the ditch to ditch again.

Nobody is saying Sutter didn't contribute to the issues. Roster decisions, the way he handled the media, and the shot volume tactic all played a role.

But zero accountability to the players for key players having terrible seasons?

Markstrom should have barracaded the door and stayed in the locker room. Like my kid does when it's time to go to the dentist. How dare he be played.

It actually goes much deeper than that. See, because Sutter REFUSED to play Vladar (more than 50% of games) when he was RED HOT (.900sv%), that was actually abusive to Markstrom because, psychologically, Markstrom became convinced that Sutter would mistreat him if he won games, so this psychological abuse manifested itself in Markstrom playing poorly.

Nobody is saying zero accountability to players. You are putting up an argument that I’m certainly not making.

And at the same time, sometimes we can look at things, use reasoning, and actually not just go ‘both sides, many sides’

People are leaving the organization voluntarily, or asking to leave, and pointing at him

And the ‘big meany’ stuff? Come on Bingo. The guy might actually be a prick that people can grow to hate more over time

Ever worked for a #### boss? They can absolutely destroy morale, and that can result in subpar performance.

This stuff compounds as well. When things are not going well, the coach is supposed to find a way to make them go better. It’s not like the poor results of these players was a result of them putting themselves above coach and team

Add in a bad strategy, playing a guy on his off wing, playing a guy who set the record for assists by a LW with a 4th liner for a long stretch

It is pretty obvious it was a toxic workplace

Look at things, use reasoning, and come to only the conclusion I’ve made, because nobody else has looked at things or used reasoning.

Personally, the posters that I find interesting speak about issues and ideas more so than other posters and their style of posting.

I was responding soon after Lanny's book on how Sutter wrecked every single player and was at fault for every misstep.

You responded to my response.

Personally I hope they move on from Sutter. I'm tired of it and want to see them go younger.

On this we agree and hopefully we are seeing it happen

Coach don’t score goals and Coach don’t make saves.

This organization has allowed the accountability to rest on the coach way to many times. Time for these players to shape up or ship out I don’t care if you got two years left or six .
Wrong on Sutter, wrong on TDL, why are people still listening to this clown?
