They are necessary for the game, in my opinion.<BR/><BR/>laughingwolf: True...and the government was crazy enough to give me a passport. :O<BR/><BR/>Chris: It is allowed up to an extent. Unneccesary roughness will get you thrown out of a game or even penalized from playing several games.<BR/><BR/>No, I'm not into the steelers. I just never found the same fascination for the sport as I do hockey. I believe it is the most physically challenging sport there is, and it is very endearing to see the players go at it heart and soul.<BR/><BR/>*YAY! There is a game on tonight too. Pens vs NY Islanders. I am so going to tune in!*Michelle H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10117937124348728578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169129998329537448.post-10082452604184283602008-10-24T22:56:00.000-04:002008-10-24T22:56:00.000-04:00lol! how funny.

Really good post, kid! I like how you're unafraid to fess up to liking the fights. Lots of folks pretend not to :-)<BR/><BR/>For Sandra: There are players generally known as "enforcers". These are big burly types who attack anyone who attacks the stars on their team. Keeps the scorers safer, generally. These guys are kept around mostly for their fighting abilities, although some good fighters have also been decent players, too.Suldoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07778845367184916684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169129998329537448.post-13838308740478343902008-10-24T10:32:00.000-04:002008-10-24T10:32:00.000-04:00Buck: Yah...I know! :)I never heard of Hockey figh...Buck: Yah...I know! :)<BR/><BR/>I never heard of Hockey fights dot.com Thanks for the link!<BR/><BR/>laughingwolf: This is why I envy canucks. ;)<BR/><BR/>Sandra: Thanks Sandra! Actually, they end up getting penalized. Also, the fighting sometimes helps rile up the fans and the teams during a lackluster game.Michelle H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10117937124348728578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169129998329537448.post-43023881168726415262008-10-24T08:10:00.000-04:002008-10-24T08:10:00.000-04:00Great souvenir, Michelle!

And fighting is an integral part of the game, unless you happen to play for the Wings. About which: <A HREF="http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20081021/SPORTS0103/810210334/1128/rss16" REL="nofollow">this.</A><BR/><BR/>I also assume you know about <A HREF="http://hockeyfights.com/" REL="nofollow">Hockey Fights-dot-com</A>, right? If and when you get bored, go there and search on "Probert." He was once the heavyweight champ of the NHL, and I got to see him play during his heyday in Deetroit. Probie is in the "B" tier of my heroes, BTW.Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.com
