Brian Rolston vs Alexandre Burrows

My advice for former LSSU star and Current Minnesota Wild player Brian Rolston is keep your day job as a top 5 forward with the Minnesota Wild. I have to give Rolston credit for taking matters into his hands by answering Burrows. I would not call Rolston a goon because that was only his second fight of his NHL career www.hockeyfights.com

From www.hockeyfights.com
There were two scraps in last night’s game against the Wild. Nathan McIver had a good bout with Aaron Voros early in the first period. In the second, Alex Burrows took exception to a hit Brian Rolston put on Willie Mitchell. Rolston got Mitchell hard from behind, no call was made, and Burrows wasn’t giving Rolston any option. It was Rolston’s first major since 1994-95 when he had a fight with Ken Klee. Klee picked up the instigator in that one, something the Star Tribune also noted.

  1. Am I the only one that has a problem with the fact that Burrows wears a half shield and instigated the fight with Rolston (who doesn't wear one)?

    When I played juniors if you had a shield you either didn't fight or took it off unless both had shields.
