Georges Laraque's still instigating.

The longtime enforcer welcomed, honored, and also denounced Edmonton Oilers chuckers of past and present with 140 characters Sunday morning.

Dave Semenko racked up 981 penalty minutes in eight seasons policing for Edmonton, and Laraque tallied 826 over the same time period. In parts of four seasons, meanwhile, Penner accumulated 189 minutes. But he also scored 93 goals and collected 186 points in an Oilers uniform - far more than both Semenko and Laraque, and in far fewer games.
