Kyte really comes off as a dingus here. Funny comments from someone who was tough but had very little in the way of talent. Jim is the guy who wouldn't have a place in the NHL today and that's a good thing. Gallagher has more talent in his pinky than Kyte ever had (yes I went there).
He's acting like rats didn't exist in the 80s. Do the names Linseman, Tikkanen, Marchment, Samuelsson or C.Lemieux ring a bell?
This instigator business is so overblown. I'm sick of hearing about it to be honest. Its percieved impact on dirty play is a total fallacy IMO. Fighting can't go away soon enough as far as I'm concerned, it's a relic of a bygone era that serves no purpose.
I'd take Gallagher or Marchand on this team in a nanosecond. If we could only be so lucky...
