ការប្រយុទ្ធរបស់ NHL ភ្ជាប់ទៅនឹងអំពើហិង្សាបន្ថែមទៀត ការសិក្សារកឃើញ

Topline

Fighting between players leads to more in-game violence during National Hockey League games, according to a study published Wednesday in PLOS One, contradicting the league’s stance that its lenient policy toward fighting deters further violence in the game and suggesting fighting may be linked to traumatic brain injuries.

The peer reviewed analysis examined all penalties in NHL games between the 2010-11 and the 2018-19 seasons.

Of the 2,842 NHL games in the period with a fight, there was a 66% increase in violent minor penalties committed in ensuing gameplay compared to games without a fight, rising from .035 violent minor penalties per minute to .058.

This contradicts NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, who has ម្តងហើយម្តងទៀត បាននិយាយថា: fighting causes less violence in other aspects of the sport, and the NHL is the only major North American sports league to not automatically eject players for fighting during games.

Roughly a ទីប្រាំ of all NHL games feature a fight—រួមទាំង Monday’s Stanley Cup final game between the Colorado Avalanche and Tampa Bay Lightning—and the NHL’s embrace of fighting is often ចង to the sport’s gameplay that leads to concussions and other brain trauma.

Fighting thus “increases the risk” of traumatic brain injuries, according to the study’s author Michael Betz, an associate professor at Ohio State University.

The analysis found fighting in the NHL is down significantly over the last decade, dropping about 65% from .52 fights per game in the 2010-11 season to .18 in the 2018-19 season.

"What I found was that not a single approach I tried yielded any evidence that fighting or even the threat of fighting deters more violent play in the NHL,” Betz said.

Though fighting is technically illegal in the NHL, the league សៀវភៅក្បួន says referees are “provided very wide latitude” in enforcing fighting penalties. Bettman បាននិយាយថា: in 2013 fighting acts as a “thermostat” that can cool down further violence during games. During 2019 ទីបន្ទាល់ in front of Canada’s Parliament, Bettman again defended the NHL’s stance toward fighting, saying, “The threat of fighting makes it clear that a level of conduct that is expected should be complied with,” arguing that it prevents head injuries. Research shows concussions are ច្រើនទៀត ធម្មតា in hockey than in most other sports. A preliminary Boston University ការសិក្សា published in March of 74 former hockey players found people were at 23% greater risk of developing the degenerative neurological condition chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) for every additional year they played hockey.
