He had a terrible first two periods and should be nowhere near the PK.Pouliot's been awesome. Steady.

Awful rebound control, far too much movement and poor positioning. He didn't let any softies, but he sure was hard to watch. I was scared every time there was a shot on him. I can only imagine how the players feel in front of him.
Laughton looked a lot better when he was with Horvat (a similar player but one that is more skilled than both Anderson and Gauthier).
Give him some decently skilled players to work with and his offensive play would improve. Hard to get going offensively when he's put with Anderson and Gauthier.
That's just something that I would do if I was Sutter.
I think there will be made some changes up-front... we played basically 9-10 players in the third, so Rychel, Gauthier and Anderson will get split up somehow...
Hudon - Drouin - Laughton
McDavid - Petan - Mantha
Lazar - Gauthier - S.Reinhart
Leier - Horvat - Anderson
Rychel
Pouliot - Ekbland
Dumba - G.Reinhart
Pelech - Morrissey
Bigras
Fucale
So your plan is to put the guys who didn't, and shouldn't have played, with guys that were played?
Leave the guys who don't see much time together as the 4th.
Dumba has been very uneven, but I still give the edge to Bigras, maybe not the worst in the tourney since I have not seen every team but it is hard to remember one good play he made so far.

This might be the dumbest post in the whole thread. Why in god's name would you split up Mantha and Drouin? Because other guys are struggling? Sorry bud it doesn't work that way.

Poor Laughton straddled to dead weight like Gauthier all tournament. He has produced all year when paired with good players, not sure why he's stuck playing with guys who aren't good enough for this level.
He had a terrible first two periods and should be nowhere near the PK.
I second this...but Fucale in net is fine imoMy lineup:
Hudon - Drouin - Mantha
Lazar - Petan - Reinhart
Laughton - Horvat - McDavid
Leir - Gauthier - Anderson
Reinhart - Morrissey
Pouliot - Ekblad
Pelech - Dumba
Bigras
flip a coin on the goalies???

I may have defencemen on their off side, I'm not sure. Just speculating on what Sutter wants with Reinhart back.
