Preventive measures? You mean like having armed guards & shooting the first SOB to throw a punch? How do you suggest that it be handled?

Lunatics? That's a little rough isn't it? I'm sure that there will be some league punishment like fines (if pro) or suspensions (or both) but it is unlikely that we'll be able to know what it was.

Criminal assualt charges? There goes hockey. Maybe if someone used a bat as a weapon but not just for a bench clearing brawl.

There's the "L" word again.... Civil liability? Come on......just think insurance and let the law suits begin.

You can write and ask the HC's management, maybe they'll tell you. They haven't told me anything.

Why write anything down? There are always reports to be made, got to have paperwork, and if your memory is as bad as you said it was then you should write stuff down.

How would you get the word out?
