Boston Bruins forward Trent Frederic has addressed the situation following his altercation with New York Rangers defenseman Jacob Trouba, aiming to retaliate for a previous occurrence when Trouba struck Frederic's head with a high stick.
Frederic conveyed his feelings, stating,
"I can never hit him hard enough (with a high-stick) as he hit me, so I'd have to fight him 10 times to do that. That's what's nice about hockey; you can't do that in other sports so, yeah."
Frederic's comments underscore the distinct physical nature of hockey and the opportunity it offers players to resolve conflicts during gameplay.
