They need to start policing this a lot more and need to start handing out suspensions for fights like the Ference/Stempniak fight or like the Emery/Holtby fight.
You want your goons to stay and fight fine. You want fights to still happen on a play that was legitimately dirty, i get it, but still its a reluctant fine from me but last night was as close to assault as you can get IMO and players like Ference need to be held accountable on plays like that.

The bigger joke is how Ference only got a roughing penalty. It should have been roughing and an instigator.
When Bourque got his 9 minute penalty for beating up the no name Calgarian wasn't he assessed a roughing and an instigator?
