Yeah sure, that's why the Pens traded their first round pick and a young centre for Ryan Reeves and a second. Just because a team doesn't carry a fighter doesn't mean they don't need one.

Unhappy with the physical abuse that Crosby took in the playoffs, the Penguins gave up a first-round pick (No. 31 in 2017) and 23-year-old prospect center Oskar Sundqvist to the St. Louis Blues for tough guy Ryan Reaves and a second-round pick (No. 51 in 2017).
