I'm not saying I want dirty players but I want guys who are hard to play against. Jenner is exactly that.

This. It wasn't even a
few seconds late. It was just barely less than 1.
Sorry that the Swede got injured, but I want to see those types of hits from Jackets players. I want them to hit hard. I want them to finish their checks. And I want the opposing players to be on their backs.
I'm not advocating flying elbows or hitting from behind. I'm advocating laying someone out when they watch their passes. That's the type of intensity I want to see.
