The viciousness of the game still attracts a lot of fans, but if you called a penalty for every possible infraction, we would see 5 hour games with nothing but 3-on-3 hockey, since right now, barely a shift goes by without little hooks and slashes that could be called.
And thats the issue, you cant call every penalty so you have to curb the behaviour by other means, but at the moment its getting out of control.
