[QUOTE="excitation, post: 7989"] There is a big difference between hockey and rugby when it comes to 'hitting'. In hockey there really is no reason the smash someone.. but if you happen to be the type of guy that likes to hit people, whether a clean hit or not... there is bound to be some retaliation, such as a slash, hook, spear, whatever, it's going to come to a head at some point and a fight usually plays as a safety valve of sorts. European hockey is way different in this aspect compared to North American style, it would be fun to see how Australia, New Zealand, SA, Ireland, etc. would play hockey at a high level... it seems some european hockey countries lack that aggression at times, ie; Sweden, Finland, Czh. Republic. Germany and Russia are pretty tough though. [/QUOTE]
