Domi was an enforcer, pure and simple. He had two cheap shot incidents, one bad (Niedermayer) and one maybe not so bad (Samuellson). Other than that, he was a pretty honorable player. Definitely not an agitator.
When I talk about agitators, I'm not talking about guys who go out and play physical and throw hits and draw penalties by being disciplined. That's fine. I'm talking guys like Ruutu and Avery who are always trying to get under a guy's skin, and then dive as soon as they're touched. Sure, you get a powerplay, but there's no honor in playing like that.
Really haven't seen Kaleta play so no idea what category he falls into.
