Nice find Lexi. 

It was sad to see Boogaard, Belak and Rypien all pass away this summer.  All bad cases that bring back memories of what Strelcyk(sp) from the Steelers did on the NY Thruway a few years ago. 

Fighting while a necessary evil in the game now needs to be regulated at the junior level where a 16 year old may have to take on a 20 or overage 21 year old who is just trying to get in his last few games before he is done.

Fighting is not necessary in the NHL or at any level of hockey.
