Hockey Boxing
I've never understood why we had to take our gloves of if we got into a fight during a hockey game.Maybe in the old days when no one wore helmets and the gloves had very rough stitching it might have been a good idea, but in todays game where everyone wears helmets and visors taking your gloves of to punch a guy in the helmet would have to be the stupidest thing you could do.
I say design the hockey gloves more like boxing gloves and make it mandatory that if you get into a fight you must keep your gloves on.

That's an interesting idea. It might be hard to implement, though.
For one thing, the boxing gloves nowadays have the thumbs attached, so it would be tough to hold a hockey stick with those.
For another, wouldn't putting more padding on the gloves actually encourage more fighting? :-)
I do agree, though, that taking the gloves off is stupid. No way would I punch a guy in the helmet with my bare fist. Now, with a boxing glove, well, that would be pretty easy!
Great site you have, btw!
