Are the guys pissed off about Gaudreau's contract, or is it something else?

Tkachuk and Hathaway throw their weight around but Hathaway is a terrible fighter and Tkachuk shouldn't be fighting.
Do you think some of the guys you mentioned would fight if Gio took a head shot. I am betting they would be pissed. It's an interesting question because Johnny takes an incredible amount of abuse and we see guys just skate the other way.
