You get in arguments and get in fights, but a couple weeks later you have beers together and laugh about the incident. Secondly, the NHL mandates that all sweaters be tied down with the straps. If you get in a fight and are not turned down, they give you a misconduct. The reason for this rule is that it is actually an advantage to have your jersey off. With no jersey for the other guy to hold onto, he had no way of tying you up and defending himself from your punches. The untied jersey can also be used to hold over the opponents head, which is quite dangerous. Last time I checked, no one left their seat to grab a beer while a fight was going on, so I don't know why people have such an issue with it. MPowers1634 said:
