I don't understand this line of thought....
Sutter is hot garbage -> But because he got a big contract it might inspire him to play better.
Why even trade for such a player? I don't understand.
that's not what i said. i said that it's a good combination to have invested veterans as well as excited rookies. how is the leadership going to come from a dude halfway through a two-year contract who's just been brought into a middling team? it isn't.
look, i'd love to have brought in a leader who's also going to dominate corsi and score 40 goals. but it's not feasible. so you find a guy who plugs a hole (3C), has years under his belt but isn't over the hill, and knows as much about losing as he does about winning. sutter's that guy.
i suppose i'm just looking at a team as more than the sum of its parts, though.
