What's Up with Brash?

[Purely_Purinton]

It sucks the Rags toughness pretty much begins and ends with Brash, he would be a good asset if we had an up and coming heavy in the lineup with him but all we have is Voros. I know Dubi, Cally and Avery fight a little but that's not what they're out there for. Instead we have an aging Brash who probably won't eclipse a dozen fights this year, maybe not even that many since he's already hurt and with Torts as coach add a good 10-15 healthy scratches in there too. I wish Soryal was ready, or Henley was good enough but its looking like an exciting 30 fight season for the Rags.

Yeah what a letdown when I saw Voros the other night. The Rangers played so gutless against the Islanders and lost so many puck battles and still need to get much tougher mentally! They are so soft and while Brashear is only one guy and it's a team issue, it's also better seeing him in the lineup vs a Voros who sucks! Brashear also hasn't played bad this year except he has a tendency to want to carry the puck and should just dump it in or pass it off.
I agree with Ewen, he's almost 38 and is still a presence when in the lineup! Voros sucks and the team needs to toughen up!

Apparently people don't understand that in this business when you hit 37 hockey fighting skills tend to deteriorate.

You mean people like Sather??
