Not arguing the "why", just stating my opinion on the "how". If the day ever comes where they agree they need to reduce/eliminate fighting from the game, I am not convinced that punishing enforcers who are just doing what they are PAID to do is going to accomplish.

Personally I don't mind fighting, but I am definitely tired of the goon fights which don't really add anything to the game. If I want to watch fighting I can watch UFC. I'd rather that roster spot be taken by a player who can actually play the game.
