In the minors and in junior, he absolutely LOVED to fight- he even had 253 PIMs in 48 games in his draft year, numbers that are never seen these days. Those are eighties penalty minute numbers. There are times out there when it looks like he’s really itching to beat somebody up, but refrains and skates away. It’s no reason to go out and trade him, but hopefully it’s not a matter of time scenario.

All the concussions are part of the reason I’d be fine if they traded him and got good value.
