oh and i do agree with you Giguer that they should sign players with heart and want to play, as soon as some players (not all) get the big contracts they stop trying. IMO

Fighting has been part of hockey since the early days. Taking fighting away from hockey is a moot point as most of the enforcer role as stictly a fighter/checker has left the game when compared to the 1970s-1980s.
