Violence in ice hockey
Violence has long been a controversial part of ice hockey and the National Hockey League. Violence in ice hockey takes the form of either sanctioned actions – elbowing, roughing, or the hockey fight, which are seen as integral to the game and only place the offender for a few minutes in the penalty box, or more dangerous actions which might be penalized with suspensions or fines, such as kicking, hitting from behind, or stickwork.
