@YourYoungGDYter A couple of reasons. Some teams have a player or 2 on the club that are good fighters because they can protect your teams scorers who may have players try to intimidate them. Other times, it's in retaliation for a dirty check or illegal stick use. I dislike it, but fought if I had to when i played. In this game, goalies do it just to do it, if you know what I mean. It happens sometimes in real life, but it's rare. I was playing forward.
