Hathaway / Tkachuk have been the only ones that are consistently in the other team's business and Engelland has been our only true stick-up-for-teammates guy.

Brouwer set the tone of weakness when he basically shrugged his shoulders about the slashes against Johnny in the Minnesota game and said "I do that too" (paraphrasing). I don't care what you do you better at least act like you've got your teammates back. I thought this guy was supposed to bring a bunch of leadership to the team.
