There are many things about Kotkaniemi, but calling him soft is wrong... he's unironically one of the tougher Canes. You could have someone like Drury on here above him if you wanted a Cane specifically.

You missed goalie Samsonov on TML if you look at him wrong way he gets injured and Matt Murray too.
Then there is Brodie on defence ,he can't scare kids on Halloween !

You could put the entire Sabres or Ducks squad and you wouldnt be wrong.

Honestly had a brainfart, got him confused with Teravainen

You can add Brandt Clarke to this. He had his soul leave his body after Mark Stone got in his face in preseason after Stone got blown up by Hodgson.

Yeah, Teuvo fits that description too

Leafs squad

Matt Boldy disappears come playoff time. Has no clue how to play in traffic as does most of the Minnesota Wild.

Willy Nylander

Anthony Mantha

Was going to put Willy there, but he's played a lot harder this season

Excellent player but soft as slime.

Timmy's not especially strong or tough, but he's not soft

It does take toughness to fall to the ice that many times in a game. Diving is not for the weak

Most overblown narrative in hockey

Kyle Connor, unbelievably soft player.

Timmy is definitely not soft. He doesn't shy away from anyone. His diving narrative is a joke considering 90% of the league does it.

Yeah, but Timmy's by far the worst diver...

And he does it so often, coaches are calling him that (Torts, Keefe, etc.)

I’d say the same about Johnny. He’s small and has to play his game around that (how exactly would you approach regularly skating against guys with 40 pounds and five inches on you?), but I wouldn’t call him soft.

Nylander frankly doesn’t have enough NHL experience for me to say one way or another.

Boqvist? Depends…do you consider “soft” to mean injury-prone? Cause outside of that, he’s more or less your run-of-the-mill middle pairing Offensive-D in terms of his play-style.

LOL, true but you've obviously barely watched him if you think he's soft.

I said he's a diver. Which he is, biggest diver in the league by miles. Show me where I called him soft.

All the best players do it in literally every single sport man.

Obviously not true

Lebron, Embiid, Josh Allen, Pat Mahomes etc all flop multiple times a game. But continue man. Every single player in the NBA, NFL, NHL exaggerate everything to get calls.

The Entire Oilers team
