The ones where guys are just skating around looking to hit someone because everybody else is fighting. The one on one fights serve a purpose and will/should remain a part of the game.

They play at my kids rink so we go. They are a club team I think not a officially recognized intercollegiate sport team, but they play other colleges. Anyway, there have been some real bloodbaths. I thought they might call the police one time it was so out of hand. So anyway,.they fight in college hockey too.

People like it more than you think….

I seriously doubt that fans will avoid hockey games because of fighting. You don’t have to love fighting in hockey, but if the sight of it is enough to keep you out of the rink then you’re not a hockey fan
