Yeah, this really needs to be emphasized. If you want to talk about dirty play, this guy's one of the worst offenders in the league, historically. And for that matter, would you guys similarly be up in arms about Duncan Keith playing in the ASG? Same deal there.

Let's back up a minute.

Good question. How many has he hurt?

I mean, point me to three truly dirty plays by John Scott? The only one that jumps immediately to mind is the Eriksson hit, and he apologized profusely for it and seemed genuinely contrite. Maybe I've just managed to miss the myriad incidents of dangerous play involving this guy (as opposed to general hockey-tough-guy behaviour which doesn't actually send anyone to the IR).
