Re: Line brawl on puck drop
Torts really blew up, but most of the blame is on Calgary. Westgarth and McGrattan on the opening faceoff, what else was going to happen?Comment

Re: Line brawl on puck drop
I guess there was something about McGrattan getting a five minute match penalty for elbowing or something. I'm guessing Hartley feared if he put out a skilled line, they would simply get jumped by the Canucks who had the last change.
It's entertaining, but it's really starting to give hockey a bad name. Before this whole thing, fighting doesn't give hockey the best name. I'm not saying I want it gone, but it's the only sport where in the middle of the game players can take their equipment off and start throwing punches. Technically, it's illegal (five min penalties), but you get what I mean.Comment

Re: Line brawl on puck drop
I'm one of those people who wants fighting gone completely. That aside, can we at least agree that this sort of fight does nothing for the game?Comment
