I'm with you, they do it in the WWE so why not the NHL....everyone knows it's all rigged, with the winners pre determined in both sports, so why not make it more entertaining.

Ban it. Fight and get ejected and immediate game suspension.
You don't see too many fights in rugby, soccer, or football and those games are great to watch.

Are you talking on the field or in the stands....
How many people have been trampled at hockey events? or is there such a thing as a hockey hooligan? if there is he is on the bench....not in the stands...

Obviously keep it. Lots of great points on here already on why to keep it and those in the know realize how important it is to the game. Those who don't get it well....like was said there's always soccer for you "guys". 
There's fighting in all sports even baseball & football. Ironically fighting keeps the game clean and safer. That was a good tilt and McGrattan got caught flush on the chin and down he went, probably less chance of a concussion from that then being checked into the boards from behind.

I wouldnt miss it a bit.

72 series is that the one where Bobby Clarke viciously two handed Russia's star Kharlamov ankle to put him out of series ,Espositos threatened the russkies on every shift and 300 pound defenseman "moose" Vasko ran everything in sight?? Yeah I loved that series

More gloves and teeth on the ice fill more seats. It's the hockey culture in North America.

Best part of a baseball game is the bench clearing brawls...now if only darts could get out of hand
