I mean, for a guy like him, what's his downside to doing whatever the hell he wants. He's happy on the ranch if they want to pay him to go there. He's not married to the game like some coaches.

I don't mind the lines one bit. Backlund is out best forward most nights so why not play Huberdeau with him. Everyone has been raving for the last week or more that Kadri-Huby is a fireable offense, and now they are apart. Fair enough. Plus, it is an easy switch to Huby-Lindy-Toff if necessary.
Not saying it will work, but I'm not complaining

I also don't mind Backlund-Huberdeau as far as that goes. Backlund likes to carry the puck and he also passes the puck more than Kadri.
also Coleman is a netcrasher like Bennett FWIW

True and scary
That's why the extension made no sense.
He's going to the farm or coaching us. He's not going back to Chicago LA or San Jose.

I completely hate these lines.
Mangiapane Lindholm Toffoli - three shooters on one line. Could be worse but Huberdeau makes a lot more sense here.
Huberdeau Backlund Coleman - this again. Best playmaker with two non finishers. Had one line that dominated play consistently and it's gone now
Lucic Kadri Lewis - absolute dumpster fire.
Ritchie Ruzicka Dube - Holy hell is Dube gonna have to do a lot of skating out there. Two big guys that don't bring it enough.
I don't think I could make a line up I liked less without playing guys out of position.

Why the heck does Sutter insist on keeping Lucic in? At this point, what does he bring that Pelletier doesn’t? I mean, he doesn’t even hit or fight anymore. And does he really think that Kadri’s game will improve with that black hole on his left wing?
We are going to get schooled. I doubt I will make it through the first period.

Darryl could get even more minutes out of Lucic by playing him in goal.

It really is baffling. Even if you're a little miffed by Kadri's play for some reason you could have the lines be something like:
Huberdeau - Lindholm - Mangiapane
Pellettier - Backlund - Coleman
Dube - Ruzicka - Toffoli
Ritchie - Kadri - Duerr
