Good luck to Doug - hope he has a good season with his new team. He'll be top of the pecking order of enforcers in that team - Lewis can take on the fights...if Doug gives him permission! :lol:
I disagree Maciver is a slouch, nice guy but for me whenever you watched him skate last season he was so slow it was like he was skating in wellies, our first line this season would skin him every time no problem, and as for tough he was a bit of a wet fart IMHO.

Agree, he has the turning circle of a cruise liner and was probaby the softest heavyweight in the league. He had plenty of fights but I cant remember him throwing a single decent punch.
However there is a saying in hockey which says.
Its not how many fights you win, but how many you turn up for.
Doug was far from being the toughest or best fighter, but he was always there for his team mates, he was signed for a particular role, and did his best for his mates. Top player no, 100 per center yes.
Anyway all the very best in the future Doug.
