but if you want to historically play the nhl- as i do- then steve durbano, john ferguson, ted green, tiger williams, eddie shore, sprague cleghorn are a part of that history, and physical play, fights and brawls a part of it to.

It is about making the game totally realistic as a sport and to the time periods.

thanks

Exactly. Whatever your personal opinion on it (I don't mind it) fighting is a part of hockey, and even if it's disappearing it certainly used to be a fairly major part of hockey.
