its like they aren't really putting their heart into the game if there's not one - Epiphany Feb 10, 07:10 9
- and yet some writers think fans hate fighting. More players are injured by cheap shot hits and stick work than have ever been hurt in a fight - Beaker Feb 10, 07:12 1
  - Wilbon knows the majority of NHL fans do not want to see the fights go away. - Diva Feb 10, 07:28
- it adds an element of tension I think. - Mel Profit Feb 10, 07:12 6
  - near the end of the goalie fight Price could have laid into Thomas, but instead just chatted - Beaker Feb 10, 07:14 5
    - story i heard on the radio recently... - zork Feb 10, 07:18
    - It seems very ritualized and with almost formal procedures. - Mel Profit Feb 10, 07:16 3
      - It was funny when there were 6 guys in each team's penalty box and they were all laughing and yelling at each other across the official. -- nm - Diva Feb 10, 07:18
      - I miss the days of Bob Probert and Tie Domi. nm -- nm - groiny Feb 10, 07:17 1
        
        i wouldn't mind if fighting disappeared but while it's in it can be exciting (although most "fights" are pretty disappointing) -- nm - zork Feb 10, 07:21
