I take it you don't recall last year's playoffs. He is a fighter, but he's a smart fighter. If he already knows he's committed a penalty then he fights. Granted it's probably usually to draw a penalty on the other player as well, but that's smart too. And he fights well for a guy who doesn't have a fighter's body. The point of the game is to win, not to be an idiot and fight for the hell of it and risk costing your team a power play goal against. Call me a pussy lover if you want, but I love smart players who do whatever they can to help their team win, and Ruutu does that.
EDIT: With the one exception of cheap hits to injure. That's not cool with me.
