well, not just now, but it does suck.
defensemen dont hit anymore, you just dont see the crushing hits and the fights that were so characteristic of the NHL just a few years ago. sure, they score more, but thats only because defensemen dont do anything besides stand there
comments?

Yea, I see a bunch of fights on SC and some pretty good hitting. I dont watch hockey much, but when I do its alot easier to swallow and enjoy then it was a few years ago. Im sure there are plenty of purists who will miss the old school hockey but for the newer generation we want more fast paced action and ultimatley, like it or not, scoring sells.
I still see some big hits. Watch Ottowa games, lol, they pound the **** out of everyone
That's why the Sabres didn't make it to the cup last year, cuz Ottowa took out our top 2 defensemen
