Who else?

Didn't know

Is he an agitator though? He seems tame compared to his brother Matthew

Under agitator in the dictionary you'll see a picture of Roussel and Marchand.

Marchand has retired or semi retired as being the top pest

Not really imo, he just plays hard, leads the league in hits and scores lot of ”garbage goals”, but that’s where you get calls for opposing teams.

Reaves. He's evolved into more of an agitator than a goon with staged fights all but gone.

He's still an agitator.

You'll see him chirp and get into a guy's grill. He's not averse to the odd punch to the back of the head. He basically lives in front of the net so he annoys a lot of players.

100% he is, he's always getting under the skin of the opposition.

Just like 95% of player does, he isn’t agitator like Matthew, Marchand etc, he is just a big body that annoys opponents because he brings results with use of it, he absolutely is not a agitator like his brother is for example.

Well, seeing as I've missed only a handful of games of his NHL career, I guess I'll respectfully disagree.

He's always jawing out there and carrying on.

There was a serious debate on HF Sens about making him Captain because some are worried he'll tone it down with the "C" on his chest and they want him to continue to be a shit-disturber.

Exactly. He is chirping

Guys like Lemieux and Matthew Tkachuk will spear you, dare to fight, questionable legal hits etc.

Well, he's only played 160 games. Give him some time.

This idea that he's some kind of honourable tough guy persona will disappear pretty quickly before long IMO.

That honestly is exactly how most of the players in the league are, Brady is just bigger than most of them


Edit: Trent Frederic is much much more of an aggitator than Brady and i wouldn’t really count him as a aggitator either

as a hab fan, im going to have to say Brady AND Matthew Tkachuk... I've watched enough of both players to know what they are,.... Pests!

Rousel is terrible at it tho, like he is at everything else. . He’s completely ineffective

 

[Primary Assist]

Zach Hyman used to agitate the Leafs fanbase like no other, now he's found his game and agitates the hell out of the other team

Leafs have like zero agitators on the team. I don't even remember the last time you folks had one
