I don't really care though how fans react (people are savage) or what a player like Iginla says. I think the players are terrible at guarding their own safety.
But it's about removing something (fighting) that I think is unnecessary to the game but does present long-term risks to players.

See...YOU think this....the majority actually involved in the game....really dont.
People get hurt fighting? Yup.....always have and always will. In ant sort of circumstance or walk of life.
The VAST majority however? No long term issues.
in fact in that ^^^^statement, you say
you dont care what fans OR players say....YOU want something different,
How about YOU quit trying/wanting to change what the majority wants/enjoys and find another form of the game you are comfortable with, and let those that want the game to have what is has always had....which is what THEY want?
