I have played hockey since I was in 8th grade and was the goon on the squad so I have been involved in many fights. Some of the best were a few years ago when we had a goon that was a former Red Wing get in fights with some of the amateurs in our league (the league was mainly made up of former NHL, Minor league and college players so it was not a slouch league).
The funniest fight I saw was at the Frisco, TX minor league team. I forget who they played but both benches ended up clearing ... entire ice covered with fights..... the goalies stayed put but you new that it was just a matter of time before they went at it. They eventually met at mid ice and that was a heck of a fight.
Seems like most players were ejected, the penatly box were overflowing with players. the rest of the game was played 3on 3 which is very interesting because you have so much room.
Thats my story... dont watch much NHL so I can't give good input there.
I wanna say it was in a 1988 playoff game, I do remember it was game 6, Philadelphia and Montreal got into a scrap when Claude Lemuiex skated down and shot at the Flyer goal the during pre game warm up. The Flyers were offended and all hell broke loose. There were no officals the ice. It was a scene out of "SLAP SHOT." I loved it.
I don't know how many people know this but, Jack Carlson was slated to be in Slap Shot with his brothers, but had to back out because his WHA schedule would not permit it. Dave Hanson was brought in to join the Carlson brothers and they became the Hansons.
The only thing missing is Dave "The Hammer" Schultz and "Battleship" Bob Kelly. This was right up their alley.

The Wings and the Avalanche had a few that would make some top-ten lists.
I should contact my brother who was a huge Bob Probert fanatic. Over the years he recorded probably 100 of Probert's fights as a Red Wing. He then created a Bob Probert Video Death collection set to music. It has all of his greatest hits (pun intended) on VHS.

I was a Probert fan. I rated him up with my idols, Dave "The Hammer" Schultz and "Battleship" Bob Kelly. He would have been one of the most famous enforcers of all time.......if only he could have stayed out of jail. Well....I guess everybody has a little Ogie Oglethorpe in them.
