These prearranged fights have nothing to do with why fighting is allowed in hockey. Both should have been hit with a minor for delay of game, a major for fighting and a 10 minute game misconduct. No one was being taken advantage of or there were no cheap shots. Just selfishness to the great name of hockey. Fighting is supposed to be a safety valve to use so there are no stick fights. Because of stuff like this the NHL will hopefully eventually ban center ice meet-ups and challenges at center ice during warmups.
