Because you're the only one who watches hockey games outside of the Wings?
Nathan Horton:
2012/13 - 43 GP, 41 hits
2011/12 - 46 GP, 32 hits
2010/11 - 80 GP, 74 hits
2009/10 - 65 GP, 34 hits
Johan Franzen:
2012/13 - 41 GP, 43 hits
2011/12 - 77 GP, 60 hits
2010/11 - 76 GP, 143 hits
2009/10 - 27 GP, 46 hits
So Horton's more physical than Franzen?
In the past four years alone, Franzen's been producing at a rate of over a hit per game, where Horton has never accomplished that in the past four years. So, please enlighten me.
Horton goes to the dirty areas more, plays a tougher game, uses his size really well to control the puck, battles harder than Franzen to keep it too. I guess my definition of a physical player is different than yours. Hits are nice and all but hardly the only indicator.
p.s. your reaction to my original post was a little over the top, chill out a little.
