compared to the other 3 major sports, NFL, MLB, and NBA? There's not a day that goes by that you don't read about some sort of scandal in those sports. You got rampant steroid use in baseball, crooked refs in basketball, and NFL players getting arrested left and right (think Chris Henry and most of the 2007 Bungals squad, just to name a few). I'm not saying hockey and it's players are angels, but I rarely hear about any incidents or scandal within the sport. Yet most people (Sammy) probably think that since hockey's so "violent" it's players must be just as volatile off the ice, but that's not the case at all. Why do you think there are so many problems in other sports but not in the NHL? I dunno, Jachooz, there are reporters and websites, etc. that deal specifically with NHL news, you'd think someone would report any major that happened like an arrest, scandal, etc.... read more
