I know I’ve pushed back a lot on people wanting fighting for fighting sake. It’s probably no surprise that my favorite player of all time was the guy who won Lady Byng trophies, renounced ever fighting again in the NHL, and yet had the talent the score over 50 goals almost every year in the NHL. It formed my opinion that greatness flowed through skill and not fists.
Given his Lady Byng winner status, I didn’t know if you were taking a jab at his unwillingness to to fight. I’m glad it wasn’t.
