John Scott Jokingly Choked Out Rookie Risto

Sorta. It was in retaliation to Risto shoving his jock strap in Scott's face while he was taping his sticks in the stick room. Scott wasn't trying to hurt him but basically knocked him unconscious and panicked since it was the prized first round pick he was choking out. "was all fun and games until..." I think he said.

Wow, I never heard about this.  Bizarre that a rookie would do something like that to a known veteran fighter.  

Could this possibly speak to the theory of Risto not being all that bright?

“I’d rather play less minutes and make the playoffs.”

Interesting quote from Risto. 

That seems on par for me. I'd guess he didn't mean, "if I play fewer minutes we'd make the playoffs" rather than "I'd play fewer minutes for the good of the team if it meant playoffs".

It struck me as an admission on his part that he was being overused to the detriment of the team.

 

Ryan Miller anyone?
