Fights in der NHL - 99,4 % der Spieler dafür

  da hat er absolut recht...ich meine auch das fights dazu gehören...es kann ein ganzes spiel umdrehen...siehe pittsburgh in den PO gegen die flyers als sie 0-3 hinten lagen und talbot einen fight hatte, das spiel kippte und wurde noch gewonnen

In Las Vegas war eine Versammlung der NHLPA wo sich die Spieler wieder für die Fights aussprachen:

"We're about safety, but we also understand that if a fight breaks out in a game, Gandhi isn't leaving; he's going to stay and watch it. We understand that it's part of our sport, it cleans up our sport, it polices our sport, and it's entertainment. Goals, saves, fights -- thank you." Glenn Healy (Director of player affairs for the National Hockey League Players' Association (NHLPA).

Laraque beschwerte sich über die Regel, das es wenn es beim Face-Off zum Fight kommt, es eine 10 Minuten Strafe gibt:

The rule would see players receive an automatic 10-minute misconduct for a fight right off a faceoff, or a staged fight. Montreal Canadiens tough guy Georges Laraque said Friday the rule would never work.
"It would turn into a mockery anyway because I would turn to a guy and say, 'OK, we can't fight right now because of the rule, so we'll do six Mississippis and meet in the corner.' It's true, we would make a mockery out of it," said Laraque.

Da hat er meiner Meinung nach absolut Recht.....

Er sprach aber auch an, das einige Spieler unfair fighten, als Beispiel brachte er folgenden Fight:

Laraque said the players also discussed the mixed martial arts tactics that some fighters are bringing into the NHL; he singled out Brad Staubitz of the San Jose Sharks and his fight with Jordin Tootoo of the Nashville Predators where it appeared Staubitz was connecting with his forearm instead of his fist, like MMA fighters.
"That's an elbowing major, attempt to injure," said Laraque. "That should be an automatic suspension. We're totally against it."

Auch da hat er mMn absolut Recht.

Ich muss auch sagen, dass in sachen fighting schon einiges gemacht wurde und ich denke dass es soweit passt.

So in der Diskussion um die ganze Fighterei in der NHL hat die Sports Illustrated einen Umfrage bei 300 NHL Spielern gestartet. Hier das Ergebnis:

That SI received responses from as many as 300 players for its survey can only mean that polling the entire league would have produced roughly the same numbers. Only the players are best suited to offer an opinion on those issues, and they have spoken--99.4 per cent in favour of keeping fighting in the game.

Man muss halt die Regeln die es schon gibt nur richtig auslegen.....
