Long overdue.
I grew up in Halifax, and I recall once going to a Mooseheads training camp scrimmage in Cole Harbour. I believe Tanguay was on that team, or had been the year before.
There were probably ten fights, minimum. Blood all over the ice. I’d never seen anything like it, and not in a good way.
You want to pay a guy league minimum, or even several million, to punch/get punched, that’s one thing (and a longer, separate post).
Sending somebody’s 15-18 year old kid to Nowheresville New Brunswick to get punched in the face for free is not okay.
