How has Sutter been in Hershey? Always liked his game in Everett. Sounds like he'll never sniff the NHL though looking at his stats unless his checking/defense is really really good (he was fine at both in Everett)

He'll probably get an honest chance to make the Caps on their 4th line or as a 13th forward this year.

I'd like him in that role for sure as a checking/energy forward. He was always good at keeping the puck/play in the offensive zone. Good on the boards.

Rebooting myself
He's a high end 4th line center at the AHL level. He probably tops out as a average 4th liner in the NHL. He's good at the dot, he's physical, a strong forechecker, he's clutch and excels in big moments protecting the lead. A high end PKer and shot blocker. He can chip in a few goals and doesn't look out of place when he has some offensive play drivers with him but won't drive the O on his own. He has spent so much of his early career injured it really set him back but he's come around the past two seasons and remained mostly healthy. I think he'll have a chance to potentially battle for the last 4th line spot in Washington this year with Raddysh. If he loses out I think he could be the 13th forward or potentially the first call up from Hershey.
