That video had a JSG getting run and punched, Vernon being cross checked in the head, boarding, unwilling players being run down, Friesen being needlessly attacked, guys throwing punches after the ref has intervened, guys throwing punches at guys laying on the ice, etc.
Anyone who thinks hockey has a respect/fighting/reckless behaviour problem NOW should watch that video. Hockey is certainly more gentle and respectful now than it's ever been.

It's funny at the end too when the games over and they say that there will probably be fines, possibly even a suspension
Possibly a suspension, maybe
If that happened today everyone involved would have to face some sort of discipline
Don't think Berube ever got a suspension for that game. Today him and both coaches would get 5+ at least
