Regardless, of all the goons there have ever been, McGrattan is the last guy that would fight or try to fight an inferior opponent. I wasn't familiar enough with Westgarth prior to Saturday to have said the same for him, but even he didn't throw punches at baby Bieksa, who is more than big enough to be able to handle himself. Being a coach as long as he has been, Torts would have had to have known that there was literally no risk in starting the sisters. I don't buy the "protect your players" argument for one second, and quite honestly I'm shocked to hear guys like Olczyk agreeing with it.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Scott just facewash Kessel trying to goad someone else into fighting him? All I remember is facewashes and wrestling with Kessel. If Scott really was going to hurt kessel he would have
