Damn, I’m obsessed with college hockey.
The Arizona State University and Alaska Fairbanks University men's hockey teams met in the latter's territory over the weekend, just two weeks after they met at Mallett Arena in Tempe. And lo and behold, these boys put on a show for us with an absolutely insane fight that broke out during Friday's game.
It was Nanook's blue liner that started the scuffle. dawson bruneski and Sun Devils defenseman tucker ness. Late in the contest, they were in the same box as the rough-and-tumble minors.
There was just 16 seconds left until the end of the game, a skirmish begins with players pushing each other: Bruneski and Ness appear. The two decide to join the circus, getting out of the box ahead of time and finishing each other off.
As a hockey fan, it was an incredibly beautiful sight.

This is hockey, folks.
I've seen debates surrounding this situation where people go back and forth about college hockey players and whether or not they should be allowed to play. My answer: Yes.
Not only that, but when it comes to gambling, college props should also be allowed in every state that allows sports betting. That said, gambling should be legalized in all 50 states. (Related: America's sports betting industry will earn a whopping $10.9 billion in 2023, up 45% from the previous year)
Come on, people…why are we making our people weaker and weaker?
Let them fight and make money on bets! We are in America (you know, the land of the free)!
