Are you denying there are racial overtones to the word?
If you want there to be. Are you denying white folks can be called thugs? Thugs existed long before integration.
The acceptable term for a hockey "thug" is goon. It's always been that way but you're welcome to call them what you want.

What does that even mean I can if I was there to be? Nice cop out.
Sure, there are white thugs. As far as I know, Webster's hasn't completely changed the definition of the term. It just requires paying a little attention to the context of the term.
