"She's worried about it. She's walked out of the rink when I've fought before," he says. "My dad doesn't like it either. I mean, he gets it, but he doesn't like it. He tells me almost every game, 'Don't fight. Don't worry about fighting.' That's a parent's perspective, though." "I've earned that right. I tell guys to (expletive) themselves now. I'll say that, too. I'll say: 'Go (expletive) yourself.' I can do that now." He pauses, then laughs. "Well, I can do that down in the AHL. I can't do that up here." |
