    If I remember correctly, didn't the Pronger brothers fight each other a time or two?

    Some sad displays lately - there is a rule that you can't remove your own helmet before a fight, so two guys gently tipped each other's lids off at the start of the fight.

    The only death ever in an NHL game was at the end of a fight when a guy fell and hit his head, sans helmet, decades ago.

    If all you can find to cheer for in a game with such skill and finesse is the sideshow staged fighting, perhaps you should find another sport to watch.

    Old Tyme Hockey!

    This is why they only allow one NHL team in Quebec nowadays -- the games used to take forever to finish :lol3

    Back in '97 or '98 I was in grad school at University of Mew Mexico, and I was teaching ESL as well. Our program centered on language learning as well as American culture, so we did lots of extracurricular stuff--festivals, baseball games, and a CHL game between the NM Scorpions and the Amarillo Gorillas (not shitting you). We had students from Malaysia, Zaire, China, Greece, Brazil, Tibet, and on and on.

    Then a fight breaks out. The lights go out on the ice except for the two fighters. Then the music starts: "I love you, you love me . . ." the fucking Barney song.

    That's the only thing our students took away from that game.

    I have another story for later--one involving my girlfriend at the time, from Quebec, a Habs-Canucks game, and Larry Robinson getting clocked partially because of my girlfriend. But that's for later.
