You clearly know nothing about hockey. The NHL does not promote the game through fights. It is only during incidences like this that non-NHL fans take notice of the sport and assume they know all about the game. How often do brawls like this occur? Not often so to say brawls promote the game is a lame comment all in itself. I'm getting a masters in sports business so I kind of have to know what's going on in sports around North America and from what I've seen the NHL does not promote fighting. No disrespect to you but I'm a huge NHL fan and have done a majority of my research on the league so it bothers me that many people just don't get the sport and are quick to bash it.

It's traditionally part of the game, and has been this way since it started. If NHL were to ban fighting (to make hockey more "viewer-friendly", then THAT would be an attempt to promote the sport. Look at every other big American sport if you want to see the commercialism of the game. I'm happy to see so many hockey fans on this board, I thought this thread would quickly sink to the bottom haha.... GO DEVILS!

Cam Janssen is so underated.

Hes fucking awesome. You know when he comes on the ice, you're going to see people fly in the air. Hes also a good fighter

Speaking of Janssen, hes just scored his first goal this season...He deserved it so bad

Yo why you gotta mess with me SON?

lol and how am I dissapointing you, my team is bending over and getting ass raped as of late. I went to the flyers game last week and we lost to them (worst team in the division). I asked for my money back, but apparently they dont do that. AT least we like the same music, mike

pyro: you seriously have NO clue what you are talking about. None whatsoever.

Wai: I love ya chick, what can I say? Dont mess with this chick, she knows more about hockey than the average white guy from czech/russia/sweden/canada/etc.

it was sad that i didnt get to enjoy either devils victory last week on tv cause i was in florida but having xm did make up for it a little since i could listen to it.

that stevens montage brought back a lot of memories. he didnt give a fuck who you were (star player or not), he would hit anyone he could.
