Paul Busch has developed an excellent website dedicated to the pursuit of a fighting-free NHL. It’s called “It’s Not Part of the Game.” The website is a well-reasoned, researched-based look at the role of fighting in NHL hockey.
Busch loves the game but is upset that fighting and thuggery take away from the beauty of the sport. Here’s the site’s introduction:
“This blog is dedicated to bringing an end to fighting in the NHL. The time has come for the league to show maturity, to display concern for their players and to allow more skill to be added to each team. From this humble site I hope to rally others with a similar opinion and perhaps communicate our message to those league officials with the power to outlaw fighting from one of the most exciting sports on the planet.”
It’s definitely worth a look.
