Very true. Lindros was a very underrated fighter, and fought a fair amount in the beginning of his career before his concussion issues. He actually handled Scott Stevens a few times in scraps. - PLindbergh31
I'm not so sure he was underrated ... people knew he was a tough sob. I think he won every fight he had with the exception of a couple with McSorely, and maybe 1 or 2 others. I'm not sure how many fights Lindros had, but I bet his record was something like 30 - 3.
edit: probably more like 20 - 3. Not sure they allowed Eric to fight that much after the first 5 or so years.

agreed, when he dropped them, he was tough! very strong!

True. Underrated is the wrong word, when people think about Lindros they don't associate him with fighting usually. I would have to look it up, but I think he has a good amount more than 30 fighting majors.
