I love fighting in hockey...
But I'm so glad the days of the enforcers are at they're end. Fights are better when they happen in the heat of the moment by team captains or 4th line energy guys who can actually play.
As much as I loved him as a person, Big Ern was painful to watch as a player... And no one will ever be as bad as Westgarth...
The guys who fight now may not be the big heavyweights, but at least they add more than just fights to their teams.
