    All those saying TG is the one keeping the players from playing physical, he didn't mind slotting MacEwen in on the 2nd line replacing Eriksson after his fight. Seems to me like he's rewarding the guy for his physical play. I never bought that narrative - it started last year with the Florida incident when he did actually tell guys not to go after Matheson, but that was an isolated incident imo. There was also a Canucks behind the scenes video released recently (will try to find it) where in his pre-game speech in the locker room he tells guys to be physical as well. I will try to find the video and post later.

      i agree @Squamfan I think it is the culture and the culture is driven by market demand as well. When my interest in hockey really peaked circa 2006-2007 I remember lots of fans and media alike would get on a player's case if they took a penalty that offset a 2 min PP we got as a result of a bad hit. They'd call it a stupid penalty. F**k the 2 min PP I want blood if one of our guys goes down. That attitude is what makes players think twice about standing up for each other, let alone be the aggressors. It was over a couple of seasons and then MG with his dumb f*king quote about turning the other cheek really set this feeble and fearful culture into motion.
