That's fair. Maybe not at all levels, but certainly below certain levels of skill. I want to say this is already the case, but I may be wrong. For example, division 5 or lower, where the skills are not developed enough, you don't want to have people just rambling around the ice trying to kill each other.

I played one year of forward, I think I threw five hits. I can't say I'dve missed it much if the hitting was gone, but I also remember one hit being incredibly satisfying.

Again, I think the biggest problem might be rooted in sending kids back out. Maybe you don't need to be as extreme as one concussion and you're done, but as a parent you need to be aware of that sort of thing and protect kids from themselves a bit.
