I'll admit, I never watch hockey, and it's not because I don't respect the sport.� I just don't really understand it, and it doesn't reallyrepresent my demographic.� However, I was watching Sports Center this morning and saw the kid [size=-1]Sidney Crosby[/size] fighting,and it made me search youtube for some hockey fights.� I came across this one.

Is this the norm?� And from my understanding, after a fight, the players have to sit in a penalty box for a designated amount of time.
So how the hell does the game continue after a brawl like this?
Furthermore, why is this type of behavior looked down in all major sports except for this one?
This doesn't look safe at all.� In fact, save for the fans interaction, this looks 10x worst than the infamous pistons/pacers brawl.
Help me out here.� For those of you who watch hockey.
��� - What spawned this huge brawl.� Is there a past rivalry?
��� - Is this type of thing respectable towards the children in attendance?
��� - Are hockey players the craziest athletes in the world next to rugby players?
