I miss guys like Toccett, Melanby, Messier, guys that have talent and not afraid to throw 'em if they have too. There are only a handful around now, Iginla and Lecavalier come to mind. But it is now the kinder faster NHL that makes it on national TV. So they don't want to see guys beatin the piss out of each other (sends the wrong message). I miss the old gritty, pushing and shoving after every whistle NHL, but those days are far gone.
