My question is, when does fighting in hockey not really occur?
At the most important time of the season, in the play-offs, where coaches want their top-skilled players on the ice and the "checking line" is made up of hard working players, not the Domi/Laraque-type players. The "enforcers" dont do not really get the ice time in that part of the season. So which begs the question, why do NHLers, the most skilled players un the world of hockey, need to do it.
As they say in any other sport, "let the scoreboard do the talking".
Now I also want to point out that the article is ridiculous and false. I agree with you guys on that. Black hockey players will fight just as much as white players. Ice hockey is played in areas where the demographic is prodominately white, thats all. Also, this has nothing to do with the other major league sports (especially MLS, thats just stupid). I would also like to point out that fights also occur in baseball (or the clearing of benches if the people want to aviod suspension).
