I heard about the time he fought Dave Brown in the Saskatoon Blades camp (my brother in law played on that team)..... Ouch. Sounds like that might have been a factor in what turned MB to coaching. 3 guys on that team combined for over 1000 penalty minutes.....and 13 over 100....

I realize Babs is the guy that somewhat initiated the end of the NHL enforcer when he was the first coach in the NHL not to dress one (in Detroit) - but that Leafs roster is about as soft as any in the NHL presently.....and they missed out on the premier grit that can play in free agency, so they have some work to do..... if they don't get that done, I'm going to enjoy watching Kadri operate in the void of toughness they now have.
