Recently, there was an article in the National Post on Tuesday, September 9, 2008 regarding hockey goons. They tackled the question of fighters like Jarod Boll and George Parros being overpaid and over supported. Dr. John P. Haisken-DeNew, an economist at the Ruhr and Pestphalian Institute for Economic Research concluded research that showed some players who fight a lot may not be getting points but are still being paid a substantial amount of money. Basically he is saying they are being paid to fight. He thought the players who fought would be penalized financially but this is not the case.

I’m not sure where this trend started, but I assume it must have been one of the southern teams looking for a gimmick to attract fans to their games. Now, more and more NHL teams are employing the hockey version of cheerleaders.

The Calgary Flames are in a singular and difficult situation this season: they’re fighting for a play-off spot in an ultra-competitive division, a couple of their difference makers (Langkow, Huselius) are poised to become unrestricted free agents in the summer and they have an impending budget crunch on the horizon.
