Lol. Your humour is not odd.

But for realz. I don't see how not educating players that are drafted each year about the risks that can arise from fighting can be a bad thing. I hope they are already doing it though. Getting punched in an area that houses a special piece of equipment can never be a good thing. If you don't want to fight then don't do it. If you don't want to run the risk of getting concussions and having your life in the long term ruined then don't play the sport. No one is holding a gun to their head and telling them to lace up.

They need to eliminate all these headshots in the NHL and the risk of CTE probably will go down for these players.

The only way to do such a thing is give heavier punishment on headshots in the NHL, if you contact the head, incidental or not auto 3 game suspension. If it looks intentional 5+

I like what ksquier said, don't change the game, educate the players and lay down much heavier suspensions on the players that continue to give out headshots.
