Is it legal to have hockey fights?

1 Answer

Answer :

It’s more or less legal for the players… on the ice… during the game, and with fists only. But still not legal off the ice, on the bench, in the locker room, the stands or the street, or using the stick or skate as a weapon. We’re working on that.
