Dear NHL can you PLEASE allow a goalie scrap?

Dear NHL: PLEASE let us have a goalie scrap! Last season, we almost got an all time goalie scrap for the history books. One of the leagues biggest villains in Jordan Binnington vs one of the leagues most beloved in Marc Andre Fleury. Both wanted it, the entire hockey universe wanted it and instead the officials broke it up. An outcome I will ever forgive the league for. Weeks earlier in a similar incident in Anaheim, after Copley went after Vatrano John Gibson was suddenly at centre ice and ready to go. Once again, it was the zebras getting in the way. The NHL seems to have told officials they don't want it because last night, we could've had another between Ducks Gibson and Blackhawks Mrazek. this one was maybe more deserving than any. John Gibson has been in goalie hell, getting absolutely peppered in Anaheim for years now. His numbers are NOT a fair reflection of his play. Petr Mrazek, I wouldn’t consider the same calibre but similarly, he’s played pretty well on probably the worst team in the NHL. After what both of these guys have had endure all season long, they have earned the right to go at it!
Last night, at the Connor Bedard Show, after the kid had himself a historic night becoming the 3rd youngest player in NHL history to record a 5 point night, it meant on the receiving end of that, was John Gibson and the Ducks. Gibson, despite being great early, was once again tested heavily with 18 shots in the first. After the game became a blowout in the 3rd with a 6-2 score, a scrum lead to Gibson crossing the red line and going after Mrazek. Oh, what could have been.... I cover it all and more in todays NHL video!

I was upset that they didn’t let Binner and Fleury go at it. Fleury always wanted a fight, said so himself, and it would give Binner a chance to either prove he’s not all talk. Love both Binner and Fleury and it would’ve been great to see. The only way a fight happens is if both goalies agree to it at a different time and then while skating around between whistles rush each other. But it’s unlikely since their job isn’t to fight

Usually a goalie only wants to fight when two of his guys are holding an opponent and he can take a shot with his blocker. There are immune to any type of retribution unless the other goalie skates the length of the ice to engage. You rarely see that. Goalies know they will never have to go one on one.

I think the reason is the helmet removal rule. You can see from the clip below that linesmen will step in as soon as a player removes their lid. Since goalies all wear cages they have to remove their helmets. The only way you are going to get a goalie fight is if you get a 90s style all out line brawl where the linesmen are too preoccupied to break it up. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q9pdfr1pyrPUkac.htmlsi=5cSB04YQPg7G6sHZ
