When you think of Dallas Stars defenseman John Klingberg, you probably think of his offensive ability first; after all, he leads all dmen in scoring (34 points in 40 games) by a decent margin (John Carlson is 2nd with 31 in 40 games, followed by a string of 29 pointers).
But what probably doesn’t cross your mind is that Klingberg seems to be getting into a lot of scuffles lately, despite largely ignoring them in years past:
"I want to defend myself for sure, I want to stick up for myself and my teammates," Klingberg said.
