I imagine most of you saw this video of the melee involving the Canadian Junior team that Patrick Roy coaches. Roy and his son were suspended after the melee.
For my two cents - this is ridiculous and the suspension was totally warranted. I guess his son is unaware of the code that says you don't keep hitting a guy when his head is near the ice - especially when you jumped him! Notice the classy gesture while heading off the ice near the end of the donnybrook. The untold part is that the punching bag is one of the best goalies in the QMJHL and Roy's son is something of a sieve as indicated in this ESPN article.

That being said, if a fracas has ensued and you are standing there and someone comes skating towards you, go ahead and plan on fighting.
