Now you may have heard of an incident between Clarke MacArthur and Patrick Sieloff at the Ottawa Senators training camp. It’s a shame that something like still happens in 2016. Maybe something like this happened in the past but with the style of hockey today it simply shouldn’t happen.
Teams still do bring some agitators to camp or just have them under contract for some games requiring toughness even though, time after time, it’s proven that they aren’t necessary. Just look at the Penguins team that won the cup. No-one took a run at Crosby or Kessel even with them not having an enforcer on the team.
