I'm also not sure where this idea came from that we're trying to save the girls from themselves.

It's not about the girls, its about whether or not it's necessary within the context of a hockey game. Most, if not all of the girls obviously enjoy their jobs.

Personally, I believe it is not necessary however, and adds something unneeded to seeing a game live. I'm there for the hockey. I'm not a huge fan of stupidly loud music during stoppages either, but that doesn't mean that I think the artists who make the music are being exploited (they are, but that's a whole other kettle of fish).
