Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 5280350, member: 173"] This concerns me as the season wears on, since it was an issue with the Devils last year pre-Keefe as well. The Devils added MacDermid to the line-up for the Kings game, I figured that was to add some physicality if the Mings started to abuse Devils players. Twice there were really marginal hits on Cotter and Hughes that didn’t draw penalties…and there was no real response by the Devils. I expect MacDermid to a least hit a guy - but nothing. If MacDermid isn’t you g to play the role of “enforcer” (to the degree that still exists) - what exactly does he add to the team? The argument it was a 1-1 game and they didn’t want to put the team at a disadvantage doesn’t work; they had to kill a 5 minute major against Nashville after Meier got retribution for some dirty play and gave up zero shots.
