New Rule To Be Put In Place To Ban Fighting In Hockey
For the approaching 2023-2024 season, the ECHL, along with other leagues, has introduced modifications to its rules.
Among these adjustments, a significant alteration focuses on diminishing the occurrence of fights during games.
While acknowledging the role of fighting in hockey, this indicates that the league may have expressed apprehension about its frequency.
The consequences of this rule change are yet to be observed, encompassing the referees' adaptation and the teams' lineup adjustments.
While it is improbable for the NHL to adopt a comparable rule, the ongoing development of the sport may persistently shape forthcoming rule revisions.
