I really like that part of the game and I think it takes a good fan to understand and enjoy it. I see a good scrap as a great point of sportsmanship in hockey and I just don't think it is when you fight with a visor.

Yeah, some of the veterans that are known as fighters remove their helmets, and have that short stand-off before engaging a fight.
Those are the good clean fights that I enjoy, and no one gets jumped early.
