^^ I am a fan of the 'enforcer' role on a team, and this is a good example of what I mean by the difference of an enforcer and an outright goon. Goons should be kicked out of hockey completely. I think it is absolutely despicable, and an embarrassment to the team that carries one. Say what you will about fighting in hockey, or even enforcers in general, but there is absolutely no support by me (nor should there be by anyone) in a team carrying an outright goon. Gillies is doing nothing but 'gooning' someone.
McGrattan is an 'enforcer', not a goon. There is a difference, and that difference is huge. I would rather the Flames had retained PL3 if they felt they needed an enforcer.
