Two goals from depth players.

The Kings top players have to show up. Crosby has two by himself.
 
Don't know if I am mad at Drew for having outside position at the goal with two pens in front
Or Brown for leaving Crosby open
Or Sutter for matching Brown vs Crosby?
 
Sure Sutter picks who plays day to day, but he doesn't pick the NHL roster, who actually goes on it, pretty much no coach gets that luxury, unless the are also the GM. I am sure coaches have input, but why would you as a coach deal with call-ups....You don't coach the AHL team, you have no idea how any of those guys are playing day to day.

Babcock might be the only coach who has (major input) roster selection wise.

My only point, as it ties to HookKing's original post, was that it was Sutter, not DL to choose to not ice Forbort last year (as well as Gravel). You're kidding yourself if you disagree. This was my whole premise, go back and read my posts if you disagree. DL is not gonna tell DS (prior to this year, from what I gather, tho it's here-say) who he should/could ice. Whether it be from minors, big club etc. My only point in this debate
 
Can Doughty give back the Norris? He was better when he was chasing it. An uneven start to the season for him.

Gravel got his cup of coffee last year, then sent down. Frankly Forbort didn't deserve to play last year.

Seems to have worked, cause Forbort is much better this year.

Because Sutter has let him play. Last year he didn't.
