I wonder if an outright ban on hits to the head in the NHL would help. The problem is that it is such a chaotic sport that even with a ban there would be guys getting hit in the head by accident.

I also wonder if they made it like the Olympic and European game more by expanding the size of the ice if that would help. In those games there is less hitting, no fighting and it seems like less injuries because the speed and agility guys are rewarded with space to move and can more easily avoid the bigger hits.
