This drives me crazy.
If sutter selects on who had the better game, he's an idiot.
Pick who is going to win you the game.
Every point counts.
Selecting a 20% shooter before a 30%+ is just giving away points.
Preds>see old Devil team of block shots,play all D game-aka-Terry Murray. BOOOOOORING
I actually like picking the hard working, low percentage guys first. To put it concisely, "You're a top line player, ****ing play like it". If the top line guys aren't showing the effort or making a positive difference in the game, let them know. Put the low percentage guys out there in the shootout to show who is making a difference. If you want to call it giving away points, cool; Because that's exactly what top line players are doing by playing poorly or lackadaisically.
On the other hand, how did Trotz wait until #8 to send out Kostitsyn? Or am I giving Kos way too much credit as an offensive player?
