Don Cherry is the best and he knows hockey. He was just on NBC in the second intermission of game 4 of the Stanley Cup finals and Bill Clement and Brett Hull asked him about fighting in hockey. Don Cherry said that hockey should have more of it because it draws fans and will bring better ratings. I 100% agree with Don Cherry on this and so did Brett Hull.
The topic of fighting came up because at the end of the second period Ottawa Senators' captain Daniel Alfredson shot the puck intentionally at Ducks' captain Scott Niedermayer. Soon after that everyone tried to get at Alfredson. While he was behind a linesman and another Ottawa player, then he throws a gloved punch at Travis Moen. Real tough for Alfredson, what a classless piece of shit.
At the start of the third period they showed the referee talking to Alfredson. Where's the penalty? He wasn't given a penalty for shooting the puck at Niedermayer. Wow, what a joke! You know if a tough guy like Chris Neil or Brad May did something like that, they would probably get an intent to injure penalty and game misconduct, but no, not with Alfredson. Fuckin double standard.
Watch the video of the intermission with Don Cherry, Brett Hull, and Bill Clement talking about hockey needing fighting back in hockey on NBC. Bring back rock em, sock em!
