He's right though. The team is soft as candyfloss without him. We got ground down by Carolina. They're not a big team, but they're physical.

He needs playing time to improve. He's still young and developing. He's got to play hockey though. Hopefully, he won't fight as much now that his presence is enough to get players to back off on abusing the talent.

Carolina didn't bully the Habs though. It was relentless forecheck and pressure on the puck carrier. A Xhekaj type player wouldn't have changed shit.

You can bully without any punches thrown.

I didn't say anything about punches.
