Sutton is another stay at home defenseman who will give the Oilers some toughness in front of his own net. Sutton didn't light the lamp once in 2010-11, so he won't be seeing power play time. Still, he is the type of defenseman that every team covets as opposing teams will skate a wide berth around him rather than take the physical punishment he is willing to hand out down the middle of the ice.
