Once a career NHL agitator himself, Minnesota forward Matt Cooke can relate to what Patrick Kaleta is going through this week and went so far as reach out to him after the Wild's game in Buffalo on Monday.
"I told him, I've been there, it's not fun. It's hard," Cooke told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun on ESPN.com."I laid it out there that if he wants to know what I did, I'd gladly talk to him about it. He knows Pommer (former Sabre-turned-Wild forward Jason Pominville), so I told him `If you want to get hold of me, I'm there to talk."

"It's never going to be over for me, and I realize that, and I'm fine with that," said Cooke. "Right now I err on the side of caution. I still watch video to make re-assure that there are good times to go out and by physical.
"It's just a read. If you don't change the way you visually see the game, then change is impossible."
