Feels like the Isles have barely had the puck in this period.

Yet another reason why they don't need to focus on D at the deadline. Our top 6 are playing their roles perfectly IMO.

Godard? That was almost 15 years ago.

Lucic, McGrattan. Didn't we sign another goon for a while with McGrattan?

Those were/are all good heavyweights, but I was there when Godard won the belt vs the regining champion Boogaard.

No Flame has been that dominant in fights since including McGrattan 2.0, as Godard fought himself out of a job because no one in the division wanted any part of him.

Lucic fights rarely now., tough as nails when he does, as does Gudbranson, who does fight more regularly and is pretty dominant.
