I'm not a hockey fan, so don't know anything about the players or even team names. But i just saw i trending. Maybe these 2 teams are rivals, but im wondering why the refs are allowing them to fight. Unlike the NBA, refs always get into the middle to stop any punches but NHL is different. Its not cool for kids to watch, but I'm entertained LOL

a matter of practicality. There are only 4 on ice officials and there 10 angry dudes punching each other.

LMAO you are just saying these referees are weaklings.

Ok so why don't they deal these players a 5 or 6 figure penalty plus a ban for half a year, and their team has to play without spectators at their next home game... it needs to hurt more than one blow in the face.

Damn dude, tell us all you know nothing about hockey without telling us you know nothing about hockey.
