Everyone fights. Datsyuk fought. Gretzky fought once. Crosby has fought multiple times. Malkin. Ovechkin.
Mike goddamn Cammalleri has a few tilts in his career.
Monahan is entering his 6th season in the league and I'm not sure if he's even sworn at another player. This is a man who's looked at as a leader. He is not above violence. He is 6 ft 3 and 205. He doesn't have to fight Ryan Reaves, but he needs to do something more than 'nothing'.
This is a player who hasn't averaged a hit every two games since his rookie year.
It's unacceptable. It's a problem. Maybe the biggest problem. You can maybe get away with Johnny being a bit passive. You can't get away with 2/3 of the top line being rigid pacifists.
Good men doing nothing is not the way you get your name etched on that trophy.

Not saying he needs to fight but wanted to add one to the list.
Ryan nothing-happens (aka 'the tenderness') has a fight.
