Foligno works over the Leaf pretty good. That hit on Gunnarson was incredible. Nice and clean, and the results speak for themselves.
Embarrassing? He is a 21 year old kid taking on one of the toughest dudes in the game in his first ever NHL fight. Give him a break...

There are plenty of capable 21 y/o guys in the league. And spare me the BS of calling Rosehill one of the toughest in the game.
McNabb looked really awkward in the fight. If that's what he brings, I hope he brings it seldomly.

wait...are you saying that there is somebody else that is tougher than Rosehill? Who? Rob Ray standing between Sabres and Leafs bench doesn't count....

His point is that he's not really much fighter and he's a rookie. He fought Rosehill who is a HW/MHW fighter. McNabb should fight Komi or Brown but this is a big mismatch. It wasn't THAT embarrassing.
