This idea that guys paid millions of dollars to be #### disturbers will suddenly stop doing their ####-disturbing job because they might have to fight once a game is so absurd.
I think you underestimate Engelland's value. The guy has a reputation for being a tireless work on and off the ice and isn't afraid to keep teammates in line if they are dogging it or not taking care of themselves. He sets a good example for a young team and I think the Flames would be wise to make sure they still have that element.
