This is hockeyfights.com, mikeb. The 'smartness by being vaginas' mindset doesn't deserve praise here. It's not complicated.

I know, it is lame. Sometimes it's smart to turn the other cheek, that just didn't used to happen in the good old days when teams had 4 or 5 guys who would fight, you'd have to answer the bell.
The Lightning toughened up considerably with Crombeen, Labrie, and Aulie all on the roster but that's not exactly Brown, Stanley, and Tocchett.
