I'm not against fighting in the NHL but there's something bizarre about two heavyweight gladiators staging a fight and then congratulating each other afterwards. You might as well arrange the fight as intermission entertainment between the periods for all the effect on the game it has.

Personally I like McGrattan a lot but guys like him are not a deterrence.
