Fighting was always against the rules.
Those soft players that are entertaining to watch unlike McGratton who was about as useless as it comes.
If those hits are legal they aren't penalized. Simple.
Big Ern, 2012, only reason to watch the Flames. We were winning 1 thing a night for sure; and it was him pounding the other goon
That being said, fighting won't die, because it's the only sport that doesn't eject players for it out of the big 5. There will just not be any players who can only be willing pugilists out there; guys like Lučić, Simmonds or Hartnell aren't going to disappear, they're the new tough guy in the league.
