Ugh at this rate in ten years each team is going to assigned a heart and endurance rating out of 100 to try to make the stats appear closer to reality.

Like go watch the UFC and tell me that the intangibles don't matter. Hockey is a physical sport and anyone that doesn't think that confidence and mindset is important is living in a fairy tale.
There are lots of physical sports which do not tolerate fighting.
