If you don't like the rough stuff, go to a college or high school game. Let the players protect themselves and stop having one or two players on a team whose only job is to fight.

Do you even know what you're talking about? First to say the game has been going downhill since Gretzky is ridiculous. The man is the all time leader in everything give me a break. Enforcers protecting star players were around long before Gretzky so you're wrong there too. The rule is the third man in rule not the second. Are you saying to go to high school or college instead of playing in the NHL because if you are you have proven your ignorance about the game, this isn't basketball kids don't make it right out of high school hockey. Do you have any experience in hockey, or an even better question do you actually watch the game? Not trying to flame but when i see a ridiculous statement like the one above i must question the person.
