Of course he'd make us tougher.   The shit part well suppose that depends.   There is still room for these guys.  

There's still room for them if they can also play. I would consider the 3 best fighters still in the league to be MacDermid, Reaves, and Lucic. All three are on their way out the door. Reaves rarely plays more than 10 minutes, MacDermid is a #7 defenseman who only slots in when Colorado is worried a game might get physical, and Lucic (who was once arguably the best power forward in the game) is too slow to hit guys anymore and also about to retire.

 

Guys like Foligno and Jeannot are the ones that are actually valuable. Even Deslauriers had over 100 more hits than Lucic or Reaves last season. Jack McBain is another guy that can throw 300 hits and have the odd scrap but can also PK.

Zack MacEwen has more points than Anthony Beauvillier. Beauvillier also can’t do shit and doesn’t instil fear in anyone. At least MacEwen will drop the gloves and stick up for his teammates.

 

What a stupid comparison. Beauvillier is done at the end of the season. We also didn't get him with the expectations of dropping the gloves. Fighting doesn't mean shit when you suck and can't do anything else.

Lawson Crouse is another guy.  He has zero points and only 6 hits this year in 4 games.  I haven't watched any Arizona games so not sure what is going on.  Maybe Arizona is looking at moving him.  His value may be deflated now...

It takes time for a player's value to be inflated or deflated.  It's not like Brock Boeser is suddenly trade bait.

The point was more that Zack does something, he hits and fights. He has a role. So far this season Beau has done nothing, adds nothing. He's just "there"

It’s not stupid.  
Beau is here for points and he isnt doing that at all. 
Mac is, as well as fighting and hitting.
