An interesting bit penned by the villainous Mr. Scott for Player's Tribune:

Again, note the constant anxiety of the "enforcer's" NHL life. If for no other reason -- and concussions/CTE are obviously the primary reasons -- I'm relieved that fighting of the "goon on goon" variety is on its way out.
Like a lot of these guys, Scott is easy to dismiss as a meathead & a caricature. The essay argues otherwise. And no, I'm not a fan.
