Here's the shift chart for the curious: ShiftChart - Hockey Shift Data Visualization

I had a tough time parsing it though. Seems like neither coach was matching or Sutter was exploring different matchups and never found one he liked.
I was watching on Sportsnet and at the beginning of the game they talked about how Sutter has said that he doesn't match lines. He is confident in any of his lines playing against the top lines of other teams.

That is a bit hard to follow, but I appreciate the effort. It passes my eye test that a variety of players were out there against their top line. Maybe that is a good thing because we did shut them down.

I wonder if he'll change his mind after his 4th line cost him the game by losing coverage on Pavelski.

I think whatever yields only one goal allowed in 120 minutes of play (not counting the empty netter) is working pretty well. He might be more concerned with also only putting up 1 goal in the same amount of minutes, or maybe he also thinks offense just takes care of itself.
