Fighting is a piece of hockey, and if you want to see out-and-out violence masquerading as hockey you would be best served by going to a Philadelphia-Pittsburgh or a Philadelphia-Ottawa game.

Philly and Ottawa combined to set the NHL record for most penalty minutes issued in a single game...IIRC it was north of 500. When you pause to consider that penalties are handed out in two, five, and ten minute increments to individuals...
