He should've started at the top. He's been the king of the AHL for years already and there's better fighters down there who can't actually play hockey.
Seems like Rempe was ducking him for a reason.

I’m wondering when people are going to come around to the reality of the player and not the “idea” of the player.
I mean, I wouldn’t say he’s a bad fighter. But relative to his height, he’s not nearly the monster he’s made out to be. He’s also a bad hockey player.

He's fought him twice, went with Reaves, MacDermid, Deslauriers...kid isn't ducking anybody.
Not much of a fight, McIlrath is one of the top fighters in pro hockey anyway so there's no shame in losing that one.

Wasn't McIlrath mostly drafted as high as he was (10th OA) because of his junior fighting prowess? Reputation as toughest guy in the CHL in his draft year? Looking at that draft, there wasn't much toughness selected - I do believe he had a fight with Alex Petrovic at the CHL prospects game here in Windsor that year.
