No - not at all. I don't think people like Gudas think. I guess I should have shown a sarcastic face at the first statement and a laughing at the second. I didn't suspect that I needed to add those because people on this board are smart enough to know. - RustyPipes
I got the second part but thought the first was serious.

The problem with guys like Gudas and Rinaldo was that they don't think "Well, should I or shouldn't I throw this hit? Will I have to possibly get punched in the face by a guy wearing ice skates a few times if I hit too hard?" They make a decision to make the hit and then proceed without fear of fighting a player for a few seconds.
In a straight line, a lot of ECHL players would be able to outskate those guys, so that's not saying much. Other that occasionally punching someone's face and then sitting alone for 5 minutes, I don't see what Stewart offers over many of the young guys and AHL vets, at least on the ice. - jmatchett383
He offers sense of safety. Many will laugh and say that doesn’t exist. Knowing someone there can have their back helps
Okay everyone. Once again. Keep the discussion OFF OF EACH OTHER! If you hate someone, make a voodoo doll. But stop attacking each other or you'll get a time out. - bodiva88
Do it. It's exhausting to have the same crap here all the time.

The modern flavor of the NHL is really only about 200 foot players and I think the days of knowing someone can protect are done unless that player is defensively sound.
