Penalizing Fighting Further

That’s a no-brainer. I would make fighting a penalty. Plain and simple. To pretend it is a “penalty” under today’s rules is an absurdity. It’s a “reward,” plain and simple. You and I drop our gloves, stop the game, disrupt the flow, flail away at each other for a while, and then we both head off to sit in the penalty box to count up our majors and the game goes back on as if nothing in the world happened. No one is shorhanded, neither team is down a player — nothing, absolutely nothing.
