They are the fighters. Names like Sean Avery, Georges Laraque, Rob Ray, Bob Probert are synonymous with classic NHL video highlight reels.

Recently in the AIHL (Australian Ice Hockey League) there was a fight in a game between the Gold Coast Blue Tongues and the Western Sydney Ice Dogs. Import player for the Blue Tongues Bryan Lachance was target and finally let it fly. Lachance comes from the LNAH in Canada (Quebec Radio X) where he has set a name for himself as a quality legit fighter.

In the fight last weekend however the fight turned a nasty shade of dirty when Lachance, who had clearly won the fight dropped the guy to the ground and continued to punch him. That’s not where the real issue lies though. After the Ice Dog went down, Lachance proceeded to pull his hair and knee him. The Refs either failed to see it, or chose not to do anything about it.

The question however is simply, when someone is a fighter of Lachances calibre, why would they need to resort to such disgusting behaviour? It disgraces not just the player, but also the team.

Here is the clip of the fight in question:

The Stars made it to the Western Conference Finals last year and were just 2 wins from making the Stanley Cup Finals. Avery brings with him a big body and winning spirit that he plans to use to help push the Stars to another Stanley Cup.

One thing’s for sure, this coming season opposing teams wont get away with physical play so easily. Already fans of the Dallas Stars are looking forward to matchups between the Stars and Nashville Predators (due to the Jordan Tootoo issue last season) or the Detroit Red Wings (major rivalry issues there).
