Polemic Hockey

Now that the finesse Predators have committed the first verifiably dirty Marchmentesque play of the playoffs (the game misconduct kneeing of Cheechoo) and the neauveau 80s Oilers Pens have dirtied up the garbage time in their shellacking to the Sens can we please stop pretending that there is a direct link between fighting teams, or even fighters, and chippy play?

That goes triple for you NY Times hockey beat writer morons.
