I’m not a hockey fan, so don’t know anything about the players or even team names. But i just saw i trending. Maybe these 2 teams are rivals, but im wondering why the refs are allowing them to fight. Unlike the NBA, refs always get into the middle to stop any punches but NHL is different. Its not cool for kids to watch, but I’m entertained LOL

    Because in Hockey players have three deadly weapons on them and the thought process is that if you let them have fist fights you reduce players taking out their frustrations using their sticks or skates.
