In this episode, the Sick Man steps onto the ice to talk about one of hockey’s strongest traditions: fighting.
How it began. How it survived. Who does it. And why the sport that prides itself on speed and skill still makes room for a man whose job description includes punching people in the face.
Along the way, he examines the culture that produced it, and the enduring legend of the “Polite Canadian.”
Featuring real-life hockey enforcer Steve Hughes, who explains the mentality, duties, and code of the man who fights… while somehow managing not to injure the Sick Man.
This is Enforcer.
