Our players need to atleast try to be gritty. I get the only thing our top players have ever done is score, but damn these guys look like wimps sometimes. It would be nice to see Willy, Marner, and Matthews crash the boards hard and lay out a guy every once in a while.
Not standing up from your teammates is worrisome for me. Barrie was hit by Risto in preseason and now Petry and no Leaf stood up. Is Barrie going to stand up for a teammate in the same situation? You have to have a pack mentality in the NHL and this team does not, in spades.
