Tough break for George Parros, really great guy. Hate to see a freak accident like that happen to a tough guy like Parros...hope he's able to come back soon.

Re: Other NHL games 2013-2014 season
So the NHL is supposedly trying to cut down on head injuries, but still allows fighting. Makes sense to me. Where else do you aim when fighting but the head. Basically legal head shots. Oh well, lots of fans like the fights.Gaucho wrote:"It all seems wildly entertaining, until something like this happens."

Fighting has a place in the game though. And punches are far less devastating than a shoulder to the noggin.

This Blackhawks/Caps game has been good, back and fourth.

We'll just agree to disagree. I think hockey would be just fine without fights, especially with more and more players wearing visors.Rylan wrote:Fighting has a place in the game though. And punches are far less devastating than a shoulder to the noggin.

Yup. I'm not even a "fan" of fighting, but to remove it would be to tear the fabric of the game itself. Unacceptable.Rylan wrote:Fighting has a place in the game though. And punches are far less devastating than a shoulder to the noggin.

Re: Other NHL games 2013-2014 season
And, all due respect to Parros, the injury itself was entirely avoidable. It wasn't a helmet issue, it wasn't a "too many punches" issue.
It's definitely not a "this is why fighting needs banned" situation.

Yeah, could have been avoided by not fighting. But if it sells tickets, what is a few more concussions?MRandall25 wrote:And, all due respect to Parros, the injury itself was entirely avoidable. It wasn't a helmet issue, it wasn't a "too many punches" issue.

Maybe their PP. Only thing that kept the score close at least last night.
