On Wednesday, May 22nd, an announcement was made on Radio-Canada.ca that Donald Fehr and the NHLPA would seek to curb fighting in the NHL. According to the report this direction was announced at a meeting on April 25th with a dozen influential agents. This announcement is only the beginning and we are a long way away from seeing real action on the issue of fighting in hockey. With that in mind I thought that I would write a letter to Fehr and NHLPA membership and see if I could offer some advice on how to move the discussion forward.
