I just saw this thing about game suspensions to players that attack others, I'm not sure what you would call it.
Anyway, I understand that the fights and whatnot are part of the fun and excitement, I'm cool with that. But what really struck me is the few players they highlighted ended up getting suspended for maybe 15-20 games, while many of the "victims" never played hockey again. Seems like an awful high price for a little fanfare.
Why is this tolerated? A guy loses out on a measley 15-20 games while the other player loses his career. That just doesn't seem right.
