My kid is starting to play hockey and I told him he can't fight until he's getting paid to play, since I don't want to have to pick up the bill to take him to the ER.

I read some stories about how the enforcers are doing in the NHL...  Basically they're coming down with stress disorders and suffering significant brain injuries because they fight hundreds of times each year, much much more than any other professional fighters in any licensed combat sport.  Apparently the NHL is finally figuring out what boxing and MMA already knew, that fighting is pretty hazardous if it's not carefully monitored, and the brain damage starts with the very first hit.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

Yea, after seeing that video I think it would make a good anonymous submission to the state athletic commission, asking why participants and referees of a combat sport are not being regulated and certified at the state level, where is the doctor's evaluation of everyone that took even a single punch after the fight, why combatants who fail to follow referee instructions are not given long-term suspensions, etc...  High school kids aren't supposed to be beating on each other without some serious precautions, hockey "tradition" be damned.  The evidence about how damaging that sort of thing is to the brain is increasing rapidly so if the sport includes hand to hand combat, it should be regulated no differently than youth boxing.

After they're "adults" and not in the public school system, fights on and let them do whatever they can want IMHO.

American football is in the same predicament as hockey with head injuries.

Take away their pads and teach them how to tackle.

Lacrosse fights are better. The kids don't have skates on, and they square up without losing balance.

Players get ejected for this stuff in every other sport.  We had a local HS football team miss the playoffs because of a fight involving 4 or 5 players that all got ejected.  NHL is one thing, but at the High School level?  I like tough sports, and hockey certainly is, but letting them fight at the HS level is, IMO, dumb.

fighting is automatic DQ(ejection).   Depending on which rules the game is played under, the offending player will also be suspended for additional games.

So JOACH1M, did the players fighting get DQed from the game, suspended from future games?
