Disgusting hockey knockout shows why fighting needs to go ASAP

It was another fight, just another fight in the AHL of which I would never have been aware if not for Daniel Carcillo’s tweet on Thursday. Or maybe I’d have become aware of the bout in Stockton, Calif., once it was plastered onto the home page of Hockeyfights.com as its “featured fight.”

Of course it was.

Because what says “featured fight” more than a one-on-one at center ice in which one guy knocks the other one unconscious, as was the case last Saturday night when Stockton’s Colby Cave KO’d Bakersfield’s Martin Pospisil at 7:01 of the first period?
