It would be cool if melees and assassinations were put back into hockey. It makes the game a lot more fun. For people who complain it ruins the game, killing is a part of every game regardless of the objective. You have to pay attention to your radar in every game type. Why should you not allow assassinations just b/c little cry baby try hards want to hit the golf ball into the goal and not pay attention to anything else? What other game type does this? Answer - none. I actually find it incredibly more annoying to get constantly ARed from across the map than I do getting assassinated a lot. Just b/c little kids complain about getting assassinated doesn't mean you should give in to them. I guarantee you, you would see a vast increase in players in the AS playlist if you could assassinate in hockey. It's just more fun, who doesn't like animating people? Who doesn't like ninja'ing people? When hockey lost assassinations and beat downs, action sack went to complete crap because that was the most fun gametype. Reinstate it please, it's more fun with assassinations.
