Yeah they would think twice about all of the golden opportunities they are going to get when he's on the ice to score goals. Hell they might even think 3 or 4 times about it. It's hard not to fantasize about that kinda thing. It's not often that you get to play with a man advantage when you aren't on the PP.
I don't buy it. Most of the agitators in the league will just skate away if he tries anything.
Doesn't matter. Sid wants an enforcer on the roster, and so, we'll have an enforcer on the roster. He's said so numerous times. And if it keeps Sidney Crosby happy, well, that's worth more than anything you or I could say on the matter.
And what this has to do with Tanner Glass, I have no idea.

when's the last time Sid said that? And has he said he wouldn't be happy with Engellend and Glass handling that job?

Doesn't mean he can actually do anything. And even if he does catch them, all he's going to do is give the other team a powerplay and possibly get himself suspended. Revenge doesn't help anything.

If agitators have no fear of answering for their cheap shots (which I agree with), then maybe we should get some agitators on the team. That's my point with this whole discussion, we're missing several key roles on this team. We have scoring. We have speed. We have playmakers, finishers, etc. We have very little grit, and the gritty guys we do have are too small to make a difference.

To the bolded, we lost Jordan Staal and Steve Sullivan and replaced them with Brandon Sutter and nobody. Our scoring, playmaking, and finishing has decreased.
Our ****disturbers are Cooke, Glass, and Vitale. They may not be enough in your eyes, but we aren't getting pushed around out there. If anything, we could use more grit and size in the top 6.
Does anybody think Steve MacIntyre has the potential to play like a Mike Rupp if he trained hard during the summer I know that's asking a lot but could it be a possibility?

no it is not. he is very very bad at hockey. You can teach a hockey player to fight (Rupp) much more easily than you can teach a fighter to play hockey. Also, MacIntyre is 31. He isn't getting better at this point.
Yeah his skating and puck skills are horrible but his fighting ability is the best in the NHL he can also lay some big hits. Does the pens have any prospect that are big and can play hockey besides Tangradi?

You mean punches, right? He can't skate well enough to actually check anybody.
As far as prospects go, not so much. Jeffrey is 6'1", Sill isn't small I know and Kuhnhackle has decent size.
I'm sure anybody who's 6 foot 6, 250 pounds can hit even with horrible skating, Zach Sill is a gritty player I would want on the pens it beats having Craig Adams. I think Zach Sill can be on the PK too he's a pretty good skater.

he has to catch them. He can throw a hit, he'll just miss more often than not.
