Thread: Fighting - Discussion
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wabit</b></div><div>Fighting has a place in the game.
1. The NHL is about entertainment. Fans are entertained by fights. Arena's are louder for fights than they are for goals.
2. It gives the players a way to police themselves. Refs can only do so much, and they usually don't do enough in games.
3. Fights are between willing participants, and are usually pretty even matched.
4. Most fights now are more pushing/pulling than throwing/landing big punches. The helmet visor and fight straps on the jerseys are a couple of things the NHL has done to make fights more tame.
5. The days of the Probert/McSorley and the Broad Street Bullies are a thing of the past.
6. Guys with no skill except for fighting (goons) are almost extinct. A team might call up a goon a couple times a year, but they aren't every day roster players anymore.</div></div>

Pretty much this, and fighting removes the physical game from the NHL because if they’d only have hitting, people would watch the NFL for that. Fighting is for men, hockey is a man sport.

Thread: Eichel stars
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dutchies</b></div><div>Let's not get carried away, as this year is an outlier with the Eichel injury. Hintz right now has better production by contract, but he still hasn't hit RFA status. He'll be in the 5-6 mil convo in a couple years.
But, that being said I'd rather have Heiskanen, Hintz, the first than Eichel. All Dallas has to do is shed the Benn and Seguin contracts and they're in good shape.</div></div>

Hintz was also injured throughout this season, plus Heiskanen had a down year. I won’t make any assumptions based on this year, but Heiskanen led his team to the cup finals last year and was their best player in only his 2nd season, Hintz was a successor of this season, but it was only a matter of time until he was going to break out. In a flat cap world we can’t afford 3 ten million contract, we aren’t the Toronto Maple Leafs.
