The lesson for hockey haters

One thing that unites many hockey haters is the assumption that fighting is a part of the sport at every level.

It’s not, of course. It’s not part of the game in the Olympics. And it’s not a part of college hockey.

There are other aspects of the sport not well understood by many in these parts. But perhaps the NCAA championship being won by that famous jock factory, Yale, offers a hint about one of them.
