On Saturday night, after Jakob Pelletier's first NHL game, his head coach, Darryl Sutter, was downright disrespectful. The veteran coach clowned around in front of the cameras, totally ignoring who the Quebecer was.

That was all it took to wake up the hockey world on social media. Many people noticed and strongly criticized this lack of class. One of them is Maxim Lapierre, who did not hesitate on his Twitter account to call Sutter an old dinosaur.

»Wow! Does he also need to know that Huberdeau had over 100 pts last year? How to make a young guy feel welcome in the NHL. Time to go back to Jurassic Park 🦕» - Maxim Lapierre

His colleague from the Poche Bleue, Guillaume Latendresse, was also virulent towards the coach during l'Après-match on TVA Sports. He does not understand why a DG or even an owner accepts that his team is led by such an individual.

"It's a joke. It makes me angry that these kinds of people are still running National Hockey League (NHL) teams."

"Considering the fractious relationship between Darryl Sutter and the likes of Johnny Gaudreau, Matthew Tkachuk, Jonathan Huberdeau, plus this tip to young Pelletier, it would be over for Sutter. He would no longer be behind the bench."

"It's a disgrace. It dirties the image of the NHL " - Guillaume Latendresse
