Sutter suckss. Yet he scored tonight since he is back from his long injury .Got to love our American boy Bonino over Sutter folks .
Sutter has only played in 16 games and has a whopping 8 points you asshat. Yeah he’s lighting it up.
Not to mention he is spending a lot of that time early in the Sedins wing… guys probably the only player they have ever had that was able to elevate his game on their flank lol
Sam is known as the French John Wayne Gacy. Incredible how many kids hes killed since taking a load from DB for the first time.
