dave-O Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 If you don't believe the make-up of fighters in the NHL has changed, take one look at Minnesota's Derek Boogaard (43 GP, 1 PT, 104 PIMS, 4:00 avg TOI) in action. That guy is a trained killer. You'd have to have a deathwish to drop the gloves against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
