MontrealCity's Most:
A fight is usualy to wake up youre team mates if you feel that the games is being one sided or youre team ain't performing. Sometimes it can be a player taking exeption to a player from the opposite team taking shots at his best players.
I can't believe Phili beat Detroit like 7-1 or wtv

I dont think during a game teamates have fought but during practise it can happen, in MOntreal i can think of 4 fights in the last 3-4 years

It looks like they're gonna get a playoff spot, hopefully they can keep up with Calgary after the moves the Flames have made. I dont know if Forsberg would work out in vancouver......he's not havin a very good year so far, but maybe a change of scenery and hooking up with nazzy would give both of them a jumpstart. Can the canucks even afford him? they dont have much cap space, it would have to be a rental-type deal.
And im kinda surprised ppl dont know how the fighting works, but i guess iv been around hockey my entire life and it just seems natural. anyways.....they happen in lots of situations, but the main ones
- Usually a fight will happen to try and build momentum.....watchin someone on your team wail on the other guy really fires up the whole team, it happens more in rivalry games. These fights can seem pretty staged just because often they'll happen right off the faceoff, and arent really in the heat of the moment.
- its an unwritten rule to treat the stars with a bit more respect....If someone takes a run at one of your top players, ....someone's gonna go after that guy for sure. Thats basically what started the whole Moore/Bertuzzi thing......Moore took a run at Naslund, Bertuzzi got his revenge the next game between the 2 teams
The refs let it go....probably mostly cuz its entertaining, and its the way its always been in hockey. Although the game is much cleaner now....I dont remember the last time I saw a bench clearing brawl. anwyays, the refs will break it up as soon as someone gets knocked over/trips/whatever.....or if its gone on for too long with nothin really happening (like if they're basically just holding on to each others jerseys)
Usually the 2 guys get offsetting majors, (5 min apiece).....but sometimes if one player obviously started it, he'll get a 2 minute instigator, 5 minutes for fighting and get kicked out of the game
