It's still fighting though, wasn't it? Or I misunderstood, you are against Grubrandson taking the instigating penalty? If this the case, why bring concussion into the debate? Honest question.

Wouldn't love the fight to begin with but Gudbranson made it worse by creating a mismatch. Gudbranson is an experienced fighter who has 2-3 inches on MacEwen (who's just himself breaking into the league, like Mackey). Seems to me that would make a head injury even more likely.

This is fine, have no issue with this whatsoever. If me being against fighting is part of my brand... fine by me.
