I like Chmelar. It just seems like a trend. When was the last time the Rangers had a playerwith size that was actually good at fighting and entertaining, Colton Orr, Jason Strudwick era.
Chmelar came up through the Finnish youth system where, like most of the European leagues, you can't fight. Then he went to Providence for two years and in the NCAA, you can't fight. This is the first year he has played in a league that permits fighting. So yeah, it's not something he's going to be good at and it's also probably not something he should waste his time practicing, since he has plenty of other tools that can propel him to an NHL career.
