Enforcers in the NHL dying a slow death: Good or bad?

(In case you missed in the STLGT paper)

Fighting in the NHL. Dying artform or already six feet under ground? Is it good or bad for the game? Will the NHL outlaw it completely? Should they? My answer is easy. Fuck no. Why are referees and the NHL trying to get rid of something that helped give the sport its original identity? Why probe through a sport's DNA and take something great out of it?

The Hockey News posted a recent column on why fighting should be banned in the NHL and St. Louis Blues fourth line grunt Steve Ott replied with this juicy tweet.
