I’m pretty sure that’s not true.
I was just trying to find the old Campbell Conference logo and my hunt led me to the Wikipedia article for the Norris Division.
“…It was often referred to as the ”Chuck” Norris Division because of the intense rivalries between it constituent teams, especially the Chicago Blackhawks and the Detroit Red Wings, led to many games becoming bloodbaths- fights, bench-clearing brawls and stick fouls.”
Oh Wikipedia, sometimes you crack me up.
