Yeah thats kind of how I see it. Trust me, I have nothing against talent-less engineers making it to the NHL and all-star game! And I actually kind of enjoyed those brawls like Detriot-Colorado in the late 90's, and I "get" the role of Godard when he was here to fend off Boogard and the Oilers schmuck (forget his name)... but I guess John Scott, the players and many fans love the romantic story of it. I also think its kind of patronizing, mockery and kind of pitiful but if Scott/players/fans eat it up, thats great. I don't want to stomp on anyone's fun if they enjoy it.
