know some of the figure skating fans on here will say I'm stuck in the 70s or 80s or whenever but we'd be a better team if this question had already been answered. 

If you think that Olesiak / Zadorov situation you posted in the around the NHL thread was a fight, or an ass-kicking, or anything, you're the figure skating fan...

We don’t need any of that Brad Paisley stuff here.

You think when the ref taps him on the shoulder he says "hey it's the ref...stop now" 

 

I think they were both done at that point. I just enjoyed that one because it was a 2 for the price of 1 deal . You don't see that very often in today's league.

15 games in and not a single major... I know fighting is being slowly eliminated, but this does say a little something about our team. 

As usual, we are soft. We pass up checks all the time, rarely do we get to the net front and we get pushed around in the D zone. 

I know we have speed/skill/finesse and that's great and all, but there's next to no one on this team that really makes life difficult (Boosh, Samuelsson maybe)

Cozens and Lyubushkin seem like the only ones willing to fight. My money's on Cozens.

Sticking w/ Comrie.  😉

Though it is rather surprising that we are essentially 20% of the way through the season and there still hasn't been a single major called against them.  This is not your grand daddy's NHL.

Honestly, at this point I'll say Jost. Not because he's got any snarl to his game whatsoever, but because he's the new guy and he'll want to show his dedication to the team by jumping in to someone's defense.

Fighting is mostly gone from the game and I'm mostly fine with that. Its overall usefulness is minimal because of the instigator penalty. And yet, I think this team desperately needs a fight to bring them together and wake them up and shake them from the doldrums. Probably a line brawl, honestly. What they really need is an instigator/rat who keeps them on their edge because they never know when they'll need to answer for his antics. (And no, although Skinner is the closest they have to a rat, he's not one...he's a talker, but he's not nearly dirty enough and he won't ever stick up to anyone who wants to fight him.)
