    The fact is that you are never going to rid the game of violence, one
reason is "Hockey" is a tough and physical game and it is not for the weak
of heart, it take guts to play hockey, sure we can give penalties and
suspensions for cheap act of violence, but checking and hitting is part of
the game and that need to remain part of the game. Players know when they
play hockey, that their next shift could be their last. But I love hockey
and I really don't want to see it change anymore.  Eric
