[BREDNAMERICA]

Damn, if they did that half the sport would be gone, so to speak. Some of the best action were the fights

No they're not.

 

[pgm]

Honestly, I can't remember the last good fight I've seen in a hockey match. It's not even a reason for me to watch any more.

 

[Ropey]

This Canadian tells you that fighting will NOT be banned in the NHL.

I am giving ten to one odds.

I wanted to make this my avi a while back, but apparently the file is too large.

Yeah. Good that...

I just hope Marchand can sober up in time for the upcoming season.

Come on. He's a professional. He's got trainers for that.

They can't afford to get rid of it, it would turn off too many fans.

 

[manifold]

If they really want to make the sport safer, they need to get rid of the instigator penalty.

Prior to that, the players policed the cheap shit themselves and there was far less head injuries going around.

They may as well since they've made it a girl's sport by making the players wear helmets.

I hope they get rid of it. There is no need for it in the game.

^ Blasphemy...

Meh.

My brother was an enforcer on the ice.

If I want to see fighting, I can turn on boxing or MMA.

You mean get rid of the instigator penalty, right?

It would be back to clutch and grab New Jersey style Toro.

If the NHL does this, does that mean if I go to a boxing match, a hockey game will no longer break out?
