Really? That's surprising to know, since I feel even with that amount of fights, the team still appeared soft. (Lack of response when their goalie is getting harassed notably is what I remember)
Either way, you're right that since the PP was no threat, there's no deterrent in opposing teams playing over the edge since they feel the risk is low.
