I wonder if there is some kinda injury that we dont know about? Tonight vs toronto would be the perfect game to get going. We'll see how he reacts tonight. Will he fight or will he be absent once more ...

If he can't find a fight tonight, he's useless.

Which makes him perfect for the Cane's who have'nt had the stones for years.

Let's keep this going, nobody wants to see Westgarth back in the A and the Southeast division is weak (thought better than the Pacific and Northwest now).

Kevin will fight I think he's just used to the way it was with the Kings. Not to get into or look for fights unless it was necessary.

His confidence was rattled after the new face Scott gave him at home; before that fight he was somewhat active and looking for trouble.

Don't forget Sandy McCarthy, in his last couple of years he was useless.

That term is thrown around a bit to liberally these days.

The guy went to Princeton and was a psychology major. He probably looks at things analytically. I'm sure he asks himself why he needs to fight. I think he's a classic case of hating being an enforcer, just doing it to stay in the league. He's like the absolute opposite of someone like Orr who genuinely likes fighting. He's not the kind of guy who is gonna go out of the way just to fight someone. That being said, I hope he gets the stick out of his ass and knocks somebody out to get some confidence back and prove his worth.

Must have missed his fight against Orr

I'm not sure what happened to him. He was one of the top guys in the AHL knock a handful of guys out as well.

Seriously? Then quit and let someone who wants to fight have the job. For whatever reason he's been a stiff. Period.
