My point that I am trying to make is society could make it 100% illegal to engage in a fight. We do not.
Pro hockey could make the punishments so severe that it could nearly 100% eliminate fighting. It does not.
In that sense, pro hockey treats fighting pretty much the same as does society at large. So what is the push to eliminate it from the sport?

If you square off outside a bar and you knock some dude the #### out, you're going to be arrested and you're going to be sued. Good luck with the 'willing combatants' defence.
