Very few people were ever willing to say "Hey, maybe Eric Lindros should stop being a dipshit..."
I mean good lord, man -- you're coming into the offensive zone with your head down when Stevens is on the ice? WTF are you thinking?
It's awfully hard to get nailed THAT hard with a legal hit if you're actually paying attention. It still happens from time to time, but a guy like Lindros just tempted fate way too often.
Oh, and Lindros was more than happy to blow someone up when THEY weren't paying attention. Lindros lived by the sword.
